NAME¶
pacmd - Reconfigure a PulseAudio sound server during runtime
SYNOPSIS¶
pacmd
pacmd --help
pacmd --version
DESCRIPTION¶
This tool can be used to introspect or reconfigure a running PulseAudio sound
server during runtime. It connects to the sound server and offers a simple
live shell that can be used to enter the commands also understood in the
default.pa configuration scripts.
To exit the live shell, use ctrl+d. Note that the 'exit' command inside the
shell will tell the PulseAudio daemon itself to shutdown!
If any arguments are passed on the command line, they will be passed into the
live shell which will process the command and exit.
