[04:57] <undata> hi, I've got a python program which runs as an upstart job
[04:57] <undata> when I run it by hand as a certain user in the audio group, it can play sound
[04:57] <undata> when run via upstart setuid to the same user it cannot play sound
[04:57] <undata> would anyone know why?
[11:39] <JanC> undata: I think it has to do with login sessions
[11:48] <JanC> so you probably need su/sudo

[17:04] <undata> JanC: thank you; I will try that
