NAME
       pax11publish - PulseAudio X11 Credential Utility

SYNOPSIS
       pax11publish -h

       pax11publish [options] [-d]

       pax11publish [options] -e

       pax11publish [options] -i

       pax11publish [options] -r

DESCRIPTION
       The pax11publish utility can be used to dump or manipulate the PulseAu‐
       dio server credentials that can be stored as properties on the X11 root
       window.

       Please  note  that  the	loadable module module-x11-publish exports the
       same information directly from the PulseAudio sound server, and	should
       in most cases be used in preference over this tool.

       Use the following command to dump the raw PulseAudio-specific data that
       is stored in your X11 root window:

       xprop -root | grep ^PULSE_

OPTIONS
       -h     Show help.

       -d     Read the PulseAudio server credentials currently set on the  X11
	      root  window  and dump them in a human readable form. This reads
	      the  PULSE_SERVER,  PULSE_SINK,  PULSE_SOURCE  and  PULSE_COOKIE
	      properties.

       -i     Similar  to  -d, however dumps them in a Bourne shell compatible
	      format so they may be used together with the eval shell  command
	      to set the $PULSE_SERVER, $PULSE_SINK, $PULSE_SOURCE environment
	      variables. Also reads the authentication cookie  from  the  root
	      window and stores it in ~/.pulse-cookie.

       -e     Export  the  currently  locally  used sound server, sink, source
	      configuration to the X11 root window. This takes the  data  from
	      the  $PULSE_SERVER, $PULSE_SINK, $PULSE_SOURCE environment vari‐
	      ables and combines them with the data from  ~/.pulse/client.conf
	      (or /etc/pulse/client.conf if that file does not exist). If spe‐
	      cific options are passed on the command line (-S,	 -O,  -I,  -c,
	      see below), they take precedence. Also uploads the local authen‐
	      tication cookie ~/.pulse-cookie to the X11 server.

       -r     Removes the configured PulseAudio	 configuration	from  the  X11
	      root window.

       -D DISPLAY
	      Connect to the specified X11 display, instead of the default one
	      configured in $DISPLAY.

       -S SERVER
	      Only valid for -e: export the  specified	PulseAudio  server  as
	      default  to  the	X11  display instead of the one configured via
	      local configuration.

       -O SINK
	      Only valid for -e: export the specified sink as default sink  to
	      the X11 display instead of the one configured via local configu‐
	      ration.

       -I SOURCE
	      Only valid for -e: export the specified source as default to the
	      X11  display  instead of the one configured via local configura‐
	      tion.

       -c FILE
	      Only valid for -e: export the PulseAudio	authentication	cookie
	      stored  in  the specified file to the X11 display instead of the
	      one stored in ~/.pulse-cookie.
