[yocto] how to add pulseaudio

[Sherif Omran]

hi

i used the following

DISTRO_FEATURES_append += " ext2 pulseaudio pam usbhost sbc  alsa-plugins
${DISTRO_FEATURES_LIBC}"
PACKAGECONFIG_pulseaudio += " --with-access-group=audio --enable-bluez5
--disable-x11 --disable-systemd-daemon"

IMAGE_INSTALL_append= " pulseaudio-server libpulsecore sbc
pulseaudio-module-bluetooth-discover pulseaudio-module-bluez5-device
pulseaudio-module-bluez5-discover pulseaudio-module-loopback
pulseaudio-module-rtp-send pulseaudio-module-rtp-recv
pulseaudio-module-bluetooth-policy pulseaudio-misc python dbus gconf
glib-2.0 pulseaudio-module-alsa-card pulseaudio-module-alsa-source
pulseaudio-module-alsa-sink pulseaudio-module-cli libasound libcap libgcc
libltdl liborc-0.4-0 libpulse libsndfile1 libstdc++ libtdb libudev
alsa-utils alsa-utils-speakertest pulseaudio-module-dbus-protocol"
IMAGE_INSTALL_append += " pulseaudiostart "
DISTRO_FEATURES_remove = " x11 "


but when i start pulseaudio now, i get unable to contat dbus:
org.freedesktop.dbus.error.notsupported: using x11 for dbus-daemoun
autolaunch was disabled at compile time, set your Dbus_session_bus_address
instead.
