Because it is a per-user/per-session daemon. Not a system daemon.
but there's only one set of speakers per system, so I don't understand
the logic here. Multiple instances of PA can coexist ? Does PA handle
user switching correctly for example ? What if i want somebody to
connect through ssh on my system and run an mp3 for me, can i allow them
to do so ?
