Hi, I'm trying to set up the PA RTP receiver but for now I cannot bring the pulseaudio itseft to live with the ALSA sound card.
When trying to run PA like:
pulseaudio -vvvv
or
pulseaudio --system=TRUE -vvvv
i always get the simmilar output:

I'm sure that ALSA sound card works fine because I'm able to play some wav samples with aplay.
My sound card:
root@OpenWrt:~# aplay -lL
null
Discard all samples (playback) or generate zero samples (capture)
sysdefault:CARD=mt7986wm8960
mt7986-wm8960,
Default Audio Device
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: mt7986wm8960 [mt7986-wm8960], device 0: wm8960-playback (*) []
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
Could anyone advice me how to solve this ? What else to check? etc ?
