Testing on Fedora 29 - Recompiling unixcw from source after installing pulseaudio-libs-devel-12.2-1.fc29.x86_64 package seems to have resolved the problem. $ rpmbuild --rebuild ~/unixcw-3.5.1-1.fc30.src.rpm [..] configure: ---------------------------------------------- configure: ------ unixcw 3.5.1 build configuration ------ configure: operating system: ...................... linux-gnu configure: build libcw: ........................... yes configure: libcw soname version: .............. "6:6:1" configure: include console buzzer support: .... yes configure: include OSS support: ............... yes configure: include ALSA support: .............. yes configure: include PulseAudio support: ........ yes configure: build cw: .............................. yes configure: build cwgen: ........................... yes configure: build cwcp: ............................ yes configure: build xcwcp: ........................... no configure: ---------------------------------------------- [..] This package should be recompiled for Fedora 30 also. Thanks! Hopefully a simple rebuild fixes the problem but it doesn't make any sense... Looking at the build logs for the f29 build, pulseaudio support is enabled and checking root.log, pulseaudio-libs-devel is installed and it's the same version/release you reference. WORKAROUND: After further testing with the F30 live distribution, I've found that the "cw" program is somehow dependent on the pulseaudio-libs-devel package being installed on the *run-time* host (not just the host that the unixcw RPM was built on). Demonstration: 1. Boot the F30 live distribution, open a terminal, "su -" to become root. 2. Install unixcw # dnf install -y unixcw 3. Open a normal non-root window to test. FAILS. $ echo hi | cw 4. From the root terminal, install the pre-requisite RPMs for pulseaudio-libs-devel # dnf install -y glib2-devel libblkid-devel libffi-devel libmount-devel libselinux-devel libsepol-devel libuuid-devel pcre2 pcre2-devel pcre2-utf16 pcre2-utf32 pcre pcre-cpp pcre-devel pcre-utf16 pcre-utf32 zlib-devel 5. Retest in the non-root window to test. STILL FAILS. $ echo hi | cw 6. Now install pulseaudio-libs-devel in the root terminal. No other dependent RPMs are needed: [root@localhost ~]# dnf install pulseaudio-libs-devel Last metadata expiration check: 0:09:47 ago on Thu 02 May 2019 12:55:13 PM EDT.

Retest in the non-root window to test. WORKS!! $ echo hi | cw It seems odd that the cw runtime binary is dependent on the pulseaudio-libs-devel rpm being installed ... Was working on Fedora 30 as described above with the pulseaudio-libs-devel rpm installed. After a Fedora 30->31 upgrade ( https://fedoramagazine.org/upgrading-fedora-30-to-fedora-31/ ), the "cw" program now does not generate *any* sound on Fedora 31. BROKEN. # rpm -qi unixcw Name : unixcw Version : 3.5.1 Release : 2.fc31 Architecture: x86_64 [..] $ echo hello |cw cw: PulseAudio output not available (device: ( default )) cw: OSS output not available (device: /dev/audio) ALSA lib pulse.c:242:(pulse_connect) PulseAudio: Unable to connect: Connection refused cw: ALSA output not available (device: default) hello $ Ok, I figured out part of the problem. The method used to dlopen pulse is wrong, it depends explicitly on libpulse-simple.so (not the SOVERSION named library) which is only provided by the devel package. Working on it but I'm not much of a C/C++ guy. FEDORA-2019-f18ad78406 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 31. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2019-f18ad78406 unixcw-3.5.1-3.fc30 has been pushed to the Fedora 30 testing repository.

Interesting, I'm still on F30 and it will play one letter for me then stop. The version from testing works for me on my freshly upgraded Fedora 31 box. unixcw-3.5.1-3.fc30 has been pushed to the Fedora 30 stable repository.
