Updated to nightlies but no options for HD Audio

Same errors, though this was added, looks to be just the recreation of the guisettings.xml

Code:
09:59:50 T:3017635600   ERROR: special://masterprofile/guisettings.xml, Line 0
                                            Failed to open file
09:59:50 T:3017635600   ERROR: Unable to load special://masterprofile/guisettings.xml, creating new special://masterprofile/guisettings.xml with default values

Thanks for all the help.

Looks like pulse and AE have issues... thought pulse was not supposed to be usedHuh

oh well nature of the nightly beast lol

I've tried the nathan-renniewaldock nightly ppa on three different machines now, and the binary crashes on every one of them with the same PulseAudio error and failure of AE. The first is my older laptop with an AMD/ATI chipset. I just tried a fresh install today on my i5 2500k with an nVidia 460GTX and it failed for the same reason. I'd like to know what people are doing to get this build to work.

ALSA is better supported than PulseAudio right now. You'll probably get a bit more help via the AE - Linux thread in the development section.
System: XBMC HTPC with HDMI WASAPI & AudioEngine - Denon  AVR-3808CI  - Denon DVD-5900 Universal Player  - Denon DCM-27 CD-Changer
- Sony BDP-S580 Blu-Ray  - X-Box 360  - Android tablet wireless remote - 7.1 Streem/Axiom/Velodyne Surround System
If I have been able to help feel free to add to my reputation +/- below - thanks!

Not sure why the maintainer of that ppa doesn't disable pulse during compilation, but I compiled my own build with --disable-pulse, and it worked just fine.
