Can a Raspberry Pi play PulseAudio audio?
I would like to use my Raspberry Pi as an PulseAudio sink that can play audio via the network. For starters I want to get Pulseaudio running locally and have run into various errors. I am using the recommended Debian image.
How to enable both built in audio output and HDMI?
Choose “Analog Stereo Duplex” as your pavucontrol configuration, and add to default.pa : Works like a charm. I keep my microphone input, and on pavucontrol/Output Devices I have all options for analog output and for HDMI. Thanks for contributing an answer to Unix & Linux Stack Exchange!
Can you use PulseAudio on a HDMI port?
I’d like to achieve something similar using Pulse. I’m not sure if Skype still separates ringing and call audio when it sends them to PulseAudio, but as the Linux version of Skype can run arbitrary scripts on events, I would be happy if I could use e.g. aplay to play something on the HDMI port.
How to get PulseAudio to run in system mode?
This may help, as pulseaudio does not prefer to run in systems mode. https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/PulseAudio/Documentation/User/SystemWide/ Here is the service I wrote in /etc/systemd/system/pulseaudio.service
Where to find internal audio on Raspberry Pi?
On the right there’s a button, possibly displaying “Internal audio”, when you click it – you will see a menu with options where to route the audio stream. You can choose your Pi there, now, when the playback is running. A minor audio dropout might appear, but it will stabilize in a few seconds.
What do you need to know about PulseAudio in Linux?
We will start with something quite simple and pretty straightforward, but first let’s get some basic background. Pulseaudio is a sound subsystem for Linux aimed mostly at desktop environments. Its features (among many others) include live mixing of audio streams, routing those streams, and running it over network.
What kind of audio jack does Raspberry Pi have?
