[MacPorts] #48565: pulseaudio: add startup item
#48565: pulseaudio: add startup item -------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: devans@… | Owner: ionic@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Keywords: | Port: pulseaudio -------------------------+------------------------ If practical, adding a startup item to pulseaudio that would start it up automatically at user login would make the port more useful for those who want/need to use it on a regular basis. For example, GNOME uses it as its default low-level audio API.

I will have to investigate. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/48565#comment:1> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
