### Automatically load driver modules depending on the hardware available
#load-module module-hal-detect

### Alternatively use the static hardware detection module (for systems that

#load-module module-detect

### Load audio drivers automatically on access

### Load several protocols
load-module module-esound-protocol-unix
load-module module-native-protocol-unix

### Network access (may be configured with paprefs, so leave this commented
### here if you plan to use paprefs)
load-module module-esound-protocol-tcp
load-module module-native-protocol-tcp
load-module module-zeroconf-publish

### Load the RTP reciever module (also configured via paprefs, see above)
load-module module-rtp-recv

### Load the RTP sender module (also configured via paprefs, see above)
load-module module-null-sink sink_name=rtp format=s16be channels=2 rate=44100 description="RTP Multicast Sink"
load-module module-rtp-send source=rtp.monitor

### Automatically restore the volume of playback streams
load-module module-volume-restore

### Automatically move streams to the default sink if the sink they are
### connected to dies, similar for sources
load-module module-rescue-streams

### Make some devices default
set-default-sink output1
#set-default-source input

.nofail

### Load something to the sample cache
load-sample x11-bell /usr/share/sounds/gtk-events/activate.wav
#load-sample-dir-lazy /usr/share/sounds/*.wav

### Load X11 bell module
load-module module-x11-bell sample=x11-bell

### Publish connection data in the X11 root window
load-module module-x11-publish

### Load additional modules from GConf settings. This can be configured with the paprefs tool.
### Please keep in mind that the modules configured by paprefs might conflict with manually
### loaded modules.

## Configuration file for the pulseaudio daemon. Default values are
## commented out.  Use either ; or # for commenting

# Extra verbositiy
; verbose = 0

## Daemonize after startup
; daemonize = 0

## Quit if startup fails
; fail = 1

## Renice the daemon to level -15 and try to get SCHED_FIFO
## scheduling. This a good idea if you hear annyoing noise in the
## playback. However, this is a certain security issue, since it works 
## when called SUID root only. root is dropped immediately after gaining
## the nice level and SCHED_FIFO scheduling on startup.
; high-priority = 1

## Disallow module loading after startup
; disallow-module-loading = 0

## Terminate the daemon after the last client quit and this time
## passed. Use a negative value to disable this feature.
; exit-idle-time = -1

## Unload autoloaded modules after being idle for this time 
; module-idle-time = 20

## Unload autoloaded sample cache entries after being idle for this time 
; scache-idle-time = 20

## The path were to look for dynamic shared objects (DSOs aka
## plugins).  You may specify more than one path seperated by
## colons. 
; dl-search-path = /usr/lib/pulse-0.9/modules/

## The default script file to load. Specify an empty string for not
## loading a default script file. The 
; default-script-file = 

## The default log target. Use either "stderr", "syslog" or
## "auto". The latter is equivalent to "sylog" in case daemonize is
## true, otherwise to "stderr".
; log-target = auto

## The resampling algorithm to use. Use one of src-sinc-best-quality,
## src-sinc-medium-quality, src-sinc-fastest, src-zero-order-hold,
## src-linear, trivial. See the documentation of libsamplerate for an
## explanation for the different methods. The method 'trivial' is the
## only algorithm implemented without usage of floating point
## numbers. If you're tight on CPU consider using this. On the other
## hand it has the worst quality of all.
; resample-method = sinc-fastest

## Create a PID file in /tmp/pulseaudio-$USER/pid. Of this is enabled
## you may use commands like "pulseaudio --kill" or "pulseaudio
## --check". If you are planning to start more than one pulseaudio
## process per user, you better disable this option since it
## effectively disables multiple instances.

## Do not install the CPU load limit, even on platforms where it is
## supported. This option is useful when debugging/profiling 
## PulseAudio to disable disturbing SIGXCPU signals.

## Run the daemon as system-wide instance, requires root priviliges
