</synopsis>
<description>
<p>The PulseAudio client library reads configuration directives from
a file <file>~/.pulse/client.conf</file> on startup, and when that
file doesn't exist from
<file>@pulseconfdir@/client.conf</file>.</p>
<p>The configuration file is a simple collection of variable
declarations. If the configuration file parser encounters either ;
or # for it ignores the rest of the line until its end.</p>
<p>For the settings that take a boolean argument, the values
<opt>true</opt>, <opt>yes</opt>, <opt>on</opt> and <opt>1</opt>
are equivalent, resp. <opt>false</opt>, <opt>no</opt>,
<opt>off</opt>, <opt>0</opt>.</p>
