|
|
While I am trying to execute , I am getting the error Code: | E: [pulseaudio] main.c: Daemon startup failed. | .
I have loginctl, dbus, elogind installed and the services are running.
Here is the output of loginctl
Code: |
SESSION UID USER SEAT TTY
2 1000 larry seat0 tty1
1 sessions listed. |
Also, when I am trying to start my WM (river),I am getting an error Code: | Could not connect to socket /run/seatd.sock: No such file or directory
Backend 'seatd' failed to open seat, skipping
|
I started facing pulseaudio problems from the moment river started showing this error, so I thought maybe it's related.
What should I do now to resolve this issue? |

A quick search for the text "Could not connect to socket /run/seatd.sock: No such file or directory" suggests that you might need to set LIBSEAT_BACKEND='logind' (or perhaps 'elogind'), to avoid River (or any other wlroots-based compositor) trying to use seatd as the backend. |
