Description Derek Jennings 2012-12-04 11:00:55 CET 
Description of problem:
Test setup was a Virtual box running 3alpha3 with lxdm DM and lxde DE

When the first user logs in pulse audio works OK
On logging out and a different second user logs in, then pulseaudio does not work and a pulseaudio process is still running owned by the first user.

If a script in /etc/lxdm/PostLogout is used to kill the pulseaudio process on logout (See Bug 8209)  then pulseaudio still does not work on the next login.

Even though there is no pulseaudio process running the server refuses to start with a message

Dec  3 02:58:16 localhost pulseaudio[1406]: [pulseaudio] main.c: User-configured server at {ee74f8480d5846a62252e66350bbe6a0}unix:/tmp/pulse-QyAloLpmz4kb/native, refusing to start/autospawn.


This only happens when lxdm is used. It works OK with gdm.

Sorry, but this bug saw no action since over 2 yrs ago. 
No cauldron package has stayed the same since then.

Closing as OLD

Please reopen if this report is still valid for _current_ cauldron and/or fully
updated Mageia 4
