PulseAudio
If you are developing on Linux it is useful to have multiple access to the sound card by using pulse audio.
The docker compose file shows a container can use pulseaudio on the Linux host.
To enable
- Run paprefs and enable network server.
- Possibly also update volume mount in docker-compose.yml to point at cookie file (if not anon access) and PULSE_HOST to Linux IP address.
The snips image is built with alsa and pulse config compatible with the environment variables from the docker-compose file. - a custom alsa config file sets sink and source as pulseaudio - a custom pulse client config file uses settings to disable auto start of the pulse server on the client (because this setup talks directly to the host pulse server)
!! If you have a (playstation eye) microphone plugged into a always on usb power port, it may not reset on reboot and end up jammed. Switch usb ports (and reboot) to fix.
