Environment: -OS: Fedora release 22 (Twenty Two) kernel 4.2.7-200.fc22.x86_64 #1 SMP -Pulseaudio: pulseaudio 6.0 -Pulseaudio Equalizer: PulseAudio Equalizer/LADSPA Processor 2.7 (05/02/2010) Problem: PulseAudio Equalizer GUI works well but after using it and saving settings the pulseaudio server doesn't start any more. I get the following error if I try to start it manually: E: [pulseaudio] module-stream-restore.c: Failed to parse module arguments E: [pulseaudio] module.c: Failed to load module "module-stream-restore" (argument: "restore_device=false restore_device=false"): initialization failed. E: [pulseaudio] main.c: Module load failed. E: [pulseaudio] main.c: Failed to initialize daemon. Workaround: Open the file ~/.pulse/default.pa and change the line: load-module module-stream-restore restore_device=false restore_device=false to load-module module-stream-restore restore_device=false removing the attribute duplication.
I assume you didn't add load-module module-stream-restore restore_device=false restore_device=false yourself? Maybe it's added by the "PulseAudio Equalizer". I'm not familiar with that program, and its bugs should be reported somewhere else (sorry, I don't know where).
You are right. I didn't add the value "restore_device=false" manually. Do you mean that it is not a pulseaudio shipped tool ? Could someone point me out where the bug should be reported ?
Yes, the tool isn't part of the main pulseaudio project. I did some searching, and this seems to be the home of the project: https://code.launchpad.net/~psyke83/+junk/pulseaudio-equalizer I'm not sure where bugs can be sent. Maybe https://bugs.launchpad.net/~psyke83
