Again, this statement produced the response: "No PulseAudio daemon running, or not running as session daemon."
So, I think I have at first to start the PulseAudio daemon before I can do "pacmd list-sinks | grep name:".
It is possible that it failed to start, or that you are not using pulse.
I tried to start it by invoking "start-pulseaudio-x11", getting, however, this response: Connection failure: Connection refused pa_context_connect() failed: Connection refused
You can try first:
systemctl --user status pulseaudio.service
as user.
"systemctl --user status pulseaudio.service" gives the result: Failed to get properties: Process org.freedesktop.systemd1 exited with status 1
The result may be simplified by omitting "--user":
"systemctl status pulseaudio.service" gives the result: Unit pulseaudio.service could not be found.
It is a user service. Trying to access the root service will fail, it is normally not installed. So "--user" is necesary. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.2 x86_64 at Telcontar)
