i ran it this time it complained about it already running. Look at what transpired:

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?
