Pulseaudio > XBMC standalone - GroMmiT - 2010-08-20
Howdy all,
I'm having a problem with pulseaudio and xbmc.
When I start gnome as the xsession and then run xbmc I get perfect 5.1 analog. (This, I believe, is using pulseaudio.)
When I xsession straight to xbmc (standalone), I get a) no gui audio, b) initializing sound errors when playing audio/video, and c) the options under the audio settings for devices have changed (I assume to alsa devices.)
My question is, can I get pulseaudio to start before xbmc when in standalone/xsession? And if so, HOW?
Cheers,

Way back in the corner of my brain I seem to remember...
To load a module on startup you need to edit /etc/modules
Code:
sudo nano /etc/modulesI think you need to add "pulse" on the line directly under the last module.
