Comment 2 Colin Guthrie 2011-12-14 22:29:43 CET 
This is half expected. You need to load module-equalizer-sink into PA before starting the EQ. We know about this upstream and do intend to fix it but there are a few things in the queue to get to first!

I can't close this bug as "upstream" which is really what I want as I don't like closing bugs as WONTFIX when this is not really the intention - it's just that a downstream bug doesn't make much sense here.

If loading an equalizer sink module doesn't allow this to start feel free to open a bug over at freedesktop.org for this problem :)
