Try starting Pd with 'pasuspender', something like:

pasuspender -- /usr/bin/pdextended -alsa

.hc

Then you should definitely try to isolate issues, trying without pulse audio, gui vs. no-gui, and so forth.

I had tried that but, it turns out that it seems to be something to do with pulse audio, when I switch it off in startup applications everything seems to be fine. I've no idea why it would have anything to do with gui or nogui!

Thanks for your response

Have you tried that old technique where you delay the start of the audio a bit?

like

loadbang

Hi I just switched from ubuntu 10.04 to mint (which is supposed to be more or less the same but lighter), since ubuntu refused to run headless on the fit-pc2 which I'm using. I'm running Pd extended 0.42.5 Everything is fine except that if I run pd with the -nogui command the audio gets stuck on startup. Does anyone have any experience with this?

Thanks
Peter
