padsp(1)padsp(1)NAMEpadsp - PulseAudio OSS Wrapper
SYNOPSISpadsp [options] PROGRAM [ARGUMENTS ...]
padsp-h
DESCRIPTIONpadsp starts the specified program and redirects its access to OSS com‐
patible audio devices (/dev/dsp and auxiliary devices) to a PulseAudio
sound server.
padsp uses the $LD_PRELOAD environment variable that is interpreted by
ld.so(8) and thus does not work for SUID binaries and statically built
executables.
Equivalent to using padsp is starting an application with $LD_PRELOAD
set to libpulsedsp.so
