Hello guys, latest updates on pulseaudio made me useless my headless sound server based on pulseaudio.

This the message the server give me:

dbradders@Casa:~$ pulseaudio -D

E: [pulseaudio] main.c: Daemon startup failed.

dbradders@Casa:~$

/var/log/syslog:

Nov 13 06:55:26 Casa pulseaudio[12450]: [pulseaudio] server-lookup.c: Unable to contact D-Bus: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NotSupported: Unable to autolaunch a dbus-daemon without a $DISPLAY for X11

so, now appear like we must use an xorg session to use it...

Any clues?
