2013-05-09 13:48:11 Rüdiger Kupper description Lubuntu Raring (13.04). The Lubuntu standard installation comes without jack, and without pulse, just plain alsa. Gstreamer applications (rhythmbox, banshee) used to work fine after installing "ubuntu-restricted-extras", which pulls in the usual gstreamer plugins. On my system, gstreamer applications stopped working. They report: > Cannot connect to server socket err = No such file or directory > Cannot connect to server request channel > jack server is not running or cannot be started Since there is no jack on this system, never was, and is not intended to be there, I cannot understand this message. The applications do not produce sound. This looks like gstreamer tries to start up jackd, regardless weather it is installed or not.
