why does pulseaudio do this?

after the system is up and running I lose my sound.. and when I check on my Pulse Manager I get what you see on the attachment. Connection refused? what? why does this happen? the only way I fix it is by rebooting. it's VERY annoying... really not liking pulse :(

-MD

hello? nobody else has experienced this? :(

I've had plenty of weird audio issues that mostly automagically fix themselves or not :(

Where did you fine Pulse Manager tool?

--wally.

Does it work if you restart the pulseaudio daemon? Just enter pulseaudio -D in a run box (Alt+F2).

Install the paman package. You may also want to grab pavucontrol, pavumeter, paprefs, and padevchooser. Likely you already have some of them.

I'm assuming it would since when I reboot it comes back to life.. actually.. now that I think of it I just have to restart my session (ctr-alt-backspace) and normally my sound returns.

it seems OK now.. since I disabled my second audio device.. but I need this other device for my headset for ventrilo and other voice chat.
