Bug Description
This concerns xfce4-pulseaudi
In an Xfce desktop session, when this package is installed, and Pulseaudio is not active, I see a steady procession of these messages in ~/.xsession-errors:
--------
(wrapper-2.0:2036): pulseaudio-
(wrapper-2.0:2036): pulseaudio-
(wrapper-2.0:2036): pulseaudio-
(wrapper-2.0:2036): pulseaudio-
(wrapper-2.0:2036): pulseaudio-
(wrapper-2.0:2036): pulseaudio-
(wrapper-2.0:2036): pulseaudio-
(wrapper-2.0:2036): pulseaudio-
--------
If the plugin is going to poll for Pulseaudio, it should print a warning at most once. An alternative reasonable behavior could be to exit altogether (since a PA volume control is useless without PA).
Please forward this issue to the Xfce bug tracker. Thanks.
