Do I have a pulseAudio daemon running or not ? $ ps aux | grep pulse xxx 3054 0.0 0.1 89700 4296 ? Ssl 07:13 0:00 /usr/bin/pulseaudio --start --log-target=syslog xxx 3106 0.0 0.0 10036 2328 ? S 07:13 0:00 /usr/libexec/pulse/gconf-helper However, when I go KDE->f->administration->Services Service Configuration, the PulseAudio service is not shown. How do I install the pulseAudio daemon and get it running ?
