Hi all.
After recent update to 0.9.14, PulseAudio no longer allows clients to connect. The server appears to be running properly. On startup, it outputs to both console and messages.log:
Jan 21 15:47:37 arch pulseaudio[13203]: ltdl-bind-now.c: Failed to find original dlopen loader. Jan 21 15:47:37 arch pulseaudio[13203]: main.c: Running in system mode, but --disallow-exit not set! Jan 21 15:47:37 arch pulseaudio[13203]: main.c: Running in system mode, but --disallow-module-loading not set! Jan 21 15:47:37 arch pulseaudio[13203]: main.c: Running in system mode, forcibly disabling SHM mode! Jan 21 15:47:37 arch pulseaudio[13203]: main.c: Running in system mode, forcibly disabling exit idle time!
It's done this before without significant problems, but a couple of those messages are new.
The error presented by pavucontrol and alsamixer is Connection failed: Connection refused.
Please let me know if anything not appended is pertinent.
Thanks for any and all help.

Hi Jeff,
I have the very same messages when running PulseAudio, yet all my apps are working correctly.
Could you try to run "pulseaudio --system -vvv" and post its output here? Especially the part that is displayed after pavucontrol or any other app failed to connect to the Pulse server. It would maybe explain why the connection is refused.
If there is something about an invalid cookie, you should try to replace your ~/.pulse-cookie by /var/run/pulse/.pulse-cookie and run "pax11publish -e" to update the PulseAudio data in your X server.
Thomas
Thomas,
Thanks for the reply. I've appended the output of pulseaudio --system --vvv; no additional messages are logged on pavucontrol's failure to connect. I've tried removing all parts of pulse's cookies and config files (rm -rf ~/.pulse-cookie && rm -rf ~/pulse && mv /etc/pulse /etc/pulseold && yaourt -S --noconfirm pulseaudio) and letting it start over but that doesn't seem to help either, pavucontrol still can't connect. Sound now seems to work with PulseAudio daemon started (even mpd), but still can't connect via pavucontrol. Any help is appreciated. : )
Thanks Signed Jeff

Hi Jeff, first thing I'd try, does pulseaudio work as a user? Stop the daemon and launch it with no arguments with your user, maybe it's some kind of permission problem. Also, is your user a member of pulseaudio's groups? They are pulse, pulse-access and pulse-rt.
