# System PulseAudio service description "System PulseAudio sound server" author "Pali Rohár " # uncomment the 'start on' to start pulseaudio in system mode # (enables the pulseaudio init script - requires that users be in the # pulse-access group) # System mode is not the recommended way to run PulseAudio as it has some # limitations (such as no shared memory access) and could potentially allow # users to disconnect or redirect each others' audio streams. The # recommended way to run PulseAudio is as a per-session daemon. For GNOME/KDE/ # Xfce sessions in Ubuntu Lucid/10.04, /etc/xdg/autostart/pulseaudio.desktop # handles this function of automatically starting PulseAudio on login, and for # it to work correctly your user must *not* have "autospawn = no" set in # ~/.pulse/client.conf (or in /etc/pulse/client.conf). By default, autospawn # is enabled. For other sessions, you can simply start PulseAudio with # "pulseaudio --daemonize". start on (started winbind) stop on runlevel [016] expect daemon respawn # Prevent users from dynamically loading modules into the PulseAudio sound # server. Dynamic module loading enhances the flexibility of the PulseAudio # system, but may pose a security risk. # 0 = no, 1 = yes env DISALLOW_MODULE_LOADING=1 # extra arguments to pass to the daemon env PULSEAUDIO_ARGS= pre-start exec install -d -m755 -o pulse -g pulse /run/pulse exec /usr/bin/pulseaudio --system --daemonize --high-priority --log-target=syslog --disallow-exit --disallow-module-loading=$DISALLOW_MODULE_LOADING $PULSEAUDIO_ARGS post-start script if [ -e /var/run/pulse/.esd_auth ]; then chown pulse:pulse-access /var/run/pulse/.esd_auth chmod 640 /var/run/pulse/.esd_auth fi if [ -e /var/run/pulse/.pulse-cookie ]; then chown pulse:pulse-access /var/run/pulse/.pulse-cookie chmod 640 /var/run/pulse/.pulse-cookie fi end script
