Problem moved from bug 1939, comment #6 and #7: ------- Comment #6 From Pierre Ossman 2008-01-16 19:31 [reply] ------- A directory called pulse-<username> got created in %TEMP%. Everything else ended up in %TMP%. ------- Comment #7 From Peter Åstrand 2008-01-17 09:34 [reply] ------- >A directory called pulse-<username> got created in %TEMP%. Everything else >ended up in %TMP%. I believe this is a PA problem, rather than a tlclient one. A grep indicates: src/pulsecore/core-util.c:#define PA_USER_RUNTIME_PATH_PREFIX "%TEMP%\\pulse-" If we should change this, we should probably change it upstream, right? Also, I wonder if it's really necessary to create this directory. On UNIX, the directory is created in /tmp. Perhaps this is the cause of interference with the system PA daemon, as described in Issue5647. Re-assigning to PA guru.
