I remember running pulseaudio once and that fixed it but when i ran it this time it complained about it already running. Look at what transpired: bmike1@MikesBeast:~$ pulseaudio E: [pulseaudio] pid.c: Daemon already running. E: [pulseaudio] main.c: pa_pid_file_create() failed. bmike1@MikesBeast:~$ ps -e |grep pulse 2723 ? 00:00:08 pulseaudio bmike1@MikesBeast:~$ kill 2723 bmike1@MikesBeast:~$ pulseaudio E: [pulseaudio] pid.c: Daemon already running. E: [pulseaudio] main.c: pa_pid_file_create() failed. bmike1@MikesBeast:~$ ps -e |grep pulse 7063 ? 00:00:03 pulseaudio Would someone help me fix this? -- :-)~MIKE~(-:
