[Bug 68187] Re: "xine was unable to initialize any audio drivers." error

[Tremaine Lea]

Yeah, I'm finding killing the process (at whichever run level) isn't a
consistent fix, and using the /etc/init.d/pulseaudio script doesn't
appear to have any effect whatsoever.

There are definite problems with pulseaudio it seems:

from /var/log/messages
Nov 22 10:21:03 quad pulseaudio[21577]: ltdl-bind-now.c: Failed to find original dlopen loader.
Nov 22 10:21:05 quad pulseaudio[21666]: ltdl-bind-now.c: Failed to find original dlopen loader.
Nov 22 10:28:58 quad pulseaudio[23615]: ltdl-bind-now.c: Failed to find original dlopen loader.
Nov 22 10:28:58 quad pulseaudio[23617]: pid.c: Stale PID file, overwriting.
Nov 22 10:28:58 quad pulseaudio[23617]: main.c: setrlimit(RLIMIT_NICE, (31, 31)) failed: Operation not permitted
Nov 22 10:28:58 quad pulseaudio[23617]: main.c: setrlimit(RLIMIT_RTPRIO, (9, 9)) failed: Operation not permitted

Not sure what's being denied access, as I'm in (as far as I can tell)
the appropriate groups.

grep pulse /etc/group
audio:x:29:username,pulse
pulse:x:126:username
pulse-access:x:127:username
pulse-rt:x:128:username
