@SYN-cook commented on GitHub (May 26, 2017):
Can I ask which Firejail version you are using?
@netblue30 commented on GitHub (May 26, 2017):
It should work without whitelisting ~/.config/pulse. There is a bug in most PulseAudio versions, see here: https://firejail.wordpress.com/support/known-problems/#pulseaudio.
I would say run "firecfg --fix-sound", logout and login again and all should be fixed. Also, there should be no security implications in whitelisting ~/.config/pulse.
@SYN-cook commented on GitHub (May 26, 2017):
@rekixex I can actually reproduce it, with Ubuntu 16.04 and Firejail built from master.
If not explicitly whitelisted, ~/.config/pulse is not available in the Firefox sandbox, and as a consequence there are plenty
shm_open() failederrors.I can also confirm that not all applications have this issue (tried with Totem).EDIT: You see VLC working (I see Totem working) because there is no whitelisting. The bug is related to Pulseaudio and whitelisting.
