Instead all soundcards detected by Pulseaudio will be listed as speakers by
forked-daapd.
There is some one-time setup required to use Pulseaudio:
- Add the forked-daapd user (probably "daapd") to the "pulse-access" group.
- On non-desktop/headless systems, you will need to run Pulseaudio in system
mode. For this, you will probably want to install a SystemD .service file
(Google will help you), so Pulseaudio automatically starts at boot.
