How to solve "can not open /etc/decnet.conf"

Post by vincezd »

Hello there,
I just ran through a little problem, and found very little results in google / duckduckgo so let's share it here.
I just wanted to listen some music, but when I launched cmus (C-music player, a great ncurses music player) all I got was :

Code: Select all

getnodeadd: Can not open /etc/decnet.conf
This simple command solved my problem :

Code: Select all

pulseaudio --check
Apparently many users had this problem with *kaffeine*, and they solved it by modifying a line in ~/.kde/share/apps/kaffeine/xine-config :
Original file :

Code: Select all

# audio driver
# { auto  pulseaudio  sndio  alsa  oss  jack  none  file }, default: 0
# audio.driver:auto
Modification :

Code: Select all

audio.driver:alsa
Hope this helps !
Vincent
