The above commands are not working in embedded linux with tisdk 05-03 on am5728 board.
They showing as below.
root@am57xx-evm:/usr/lib/systemd/user# pulseaudio --kill
E: [pulseaudio] main.c: Failed to kill daemon: No such process
root@am57xx-evm:/usr/lib/systemd/user# systemctl --user daemon-reload
Failed to connect to bus: No such file or directory
root@am57xx-evm:/usr/lib/systemd/user# systemctl --user enable pulseaudio.service
Failed to connect to bus: No such file or directory

Please if you have any idea on this help me in this regard.

Thanks & Regards

Sorry no idea, this is 5 years old it probably worked back then but the software has changed.

I believe you need to run the commands as the user for which you are trying to disable the service; don't do it as root.

I paste only the commands and works on Ubuntu 22.10 (dev)

worked like a charm in late 2022. thx

This oneliner also works:
systemctl --user --now enable pulseaudio.service pulseaudio.socket

Works like a charm!
Thank you very much for publishing this!
