pulseaudio-5.0 segfaults on startup when I login to the gnome session. More info in the upstream bug report.
Created attachment 372664 [details] emerge --info pulseaudio
My local default.pa: $ cat ~/.config/pulse/default.pa #!/usr/bin/pulseaudio -nF .include /etc/pulse/default.pa .nofail load-module module-tunnel-sink server=192.168.11.239 unload-module module-zeroconf-publish .fail So module-zeroconf-publish is loaded in global default.pa and then unloaded in the local one. Commenting out "unload-module module-zeroconf-publish" fixes segfaults.
Another way to reproduce this crash: $ echo -e 'load-module module-zeroconf-publish\nunload-module module-zeroconf-publish' | pacmd
This bug have been fixed upstream in March. I've applied the following 3 patches in my overlay and had no problems since then: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/commit/?id=d03ffdccdb7286021e53876ba5d4adf9a1edd0d0 http://cgit.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/commit/?id=37e73e10be9e42544a4cc160ff85ccada2cc9aa9 http://cgit.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/commit/?id=b75a20db10c8605d98324a7782a7da6483ae9f14
