FYG ... since last reply I had to reboot and then ran the "rm -r ~/.config/pulse" again.
As before audio is currently working.

Guess I will have to remove and install again

Oh yes, sorry, that option was only added for stretch.

Try

Code: Select all

# aptitude reinstall pulseaudio

Or

Code: Select all

# apt-get install --reinstall pulseaudio

Completed removal and reinstall before I saw your last post.
It seems to work now, ie. have booted twice, and sound is still working.

Followed these instructions (found https://askubuntu.com/questions/426648/how-to-reinstall-pulseaudio-ubuntu-12-04)

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get purge pulseaudio
sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get autoremove
Reboot. Open a terminal again and type (ignore any errors with the rm command):

rm -r ~/.pulse ~/.asound* ~/.pulse-cookie ~/.config/pulse
sudo apt-get install pulseaudio
sudo alsa force-reload
