NAME

       padsp - PulseAudio OSS Wrapper

SYNOPSIS

       padsp [options] PROGRAM [ARGUMENTS ...]

       padsp -h

DESCRIPTION

       padsp  starts  the  specified  program  and  redirects  its access to OSS compatible audio
       devices (/dev/dsp and auxiliary devices) to a PulseAudio sound server.

       padsp uses the $LD_PRELOAD environment variable that is interpreted by ld.so(8)  and  thus
       does not work for SUID binaries and statically built executables.

       Equivalent   to   using   padsp  is  starting  an  application  with  $LD_PRELOAD  set  to
       libpulsedsp.so
