Re: audio from netbook, but not via SSH



Hello,
I'm running Ubuntu ARM on a KickPI, and after sudo apt upgrade, the same thing happened.
It was playing audio on bootup as for my startup script, but not over SSH.
So some on-line searching brought me to a solution.
There must be something amiss with pulseaudio in the upgrade.
The solution I found suggested that I do
sudo apt remove pulseaudio
and that fixed the problem, both in my netbook with Debian, and in the Ubuntu.
Thought I'd post the solution here in case anyone else can't get audio from SSH commands.

Subject: audio from netbook, but not via SSH

Hello All,
I don't know why this stopped working, maybe it was from a recent Debian apt update.
When it boots, and this on an Asus 701 netbook, 32 bit, it speaks using espeak-ng normally.
I don't use it directly.
I usually SSH into it from across the room, and I can usually hear audio from it when I send any command for audio, through SSH such as speaker-test, or espeak-ng test.
But lately, nothing is coming from it unless I enter it on the tiny keyboard directly.
I rebooted it and that did not resolve the problem.
So, it would work if I wasn't SSH'ing into it.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
