i confirm that:
adding "load-module module-native-protocol-tcp auth-anonymous=1" to
/etc/pulse/default.pa
and having in /etc/mpd.conf:
audio_output {
# use the pulse output
type "pulse"
# name
name "My Pulse Device"
}
this works.
like the above poster says mpd has to be started after pulseaudio, which is not the current set up. however, if i keep double clicking on files for mpd to play (or wait a minute) it does eventually reconnect to pulse. (i cant work out what the process is). then everything works perfectly, the same as if pulse had started first.
still needs some other fix, as we dont want to have to wait a while.
