Need to modify pulse/default.pa

1st Official Post

    Hello to all,

    In order to enable sound to the Guacamole / VNC combination, I need to add a line to pulse configuration.

    Of course, I understand that the filesystem for /etc/pulse is read only.

    What is the best way to modify the file /etc/pulse/default.pa ?

    Thanks for any direction / help

    Well....no joy !

    I did :

    1.

    cp /etc/pulse/default.pa /storage/.config/pulse-daemon.conf.d/default.pa

    2.

    add the following line

    Code
    load-module module-native-protocol-tcp auth-ip-acl=192.168.0.0/24 auth-anonymous=1

    to the bottom of /storage/.config/pulse-daemon.conf.d/default.pa

    3.

    reboot

    4. check /etc/pulse/default.pa ......and my addition was not there !!!!

    Any other idea?

    OK but what conf file are you talking about ?
    Do you know of any other pulse conf file? I am not an a pulse expert either....

    ....just a poor lonely user trying to modify a file in /etc.

    Do you know of a more brutal way to apply a modification ?

    (even if it will be lost upon upgrade.):)

    Are there an errors logged? Use journalctl -u pulseaudio|paste and post the URL.

    pactl load-module module-native-protocol-tcp auth-ip-acl=192.168.0.0/24 auth-anonymous=1 succeed without error on my Generic installation.

    From what i see y "pactl info", there's no Sink nor Source loaded.

    ?thumbnail=1

    Should be something like:

    "Server Name: pulseaudio

    Server Version: 12.2

    Default Sample Specification: s16le 6ch 48000Hz (your specs)

    Default Channel Map: front-left,front-left-of-center,front-center,front-right,front-right-of-center,rear-center (your mapping)

    Default Sink: alsa_output.usb-0d8c_USB_Sound_Device-00.analog-surround-51 (your card)

    Default Source: alsa_input.usb-0d8c_USB_Sound_Device-00.iec958-stereo (your card)"

    Hello there,

    Thanks for your help.

    I gave up on that option since Guacamole was way to slooow (even on the LAN) so it did not make sens to try to get a playing movie sound via VNC.

    Thanks again for your help and for LibreElec (my every day movie theater)

    Cheers
