📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughCliamp adds native Termux support through a build-tagged PulseAudio backend. Shared speaker wrappers preserve the existing backend on other platforms. Player integration, socket discovery, lifecycle handling, tests, dependency wiring, and documentation are included. ChangesTermux audio support
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to This change adds native Termux PulseAudio playback and lifecycle handling. Residual risk is limited to incomplete deterministic coverage of retry and Clear-session behavior, which could make future regressions harder to catch; no concrete current playback failure is established.

Full details: Linked Issues checkExplanation The changes add a Termux build-tagged PulseAudio backend and document native Termux builds, which satisfies the audio compatibility objective in issue Resolution Add or reference the Android/Termux ARM64 build and update release or installation detection so Termux does not receive the regular Linux ARM64 binary. If those changes are intentionally out of scope, update issue Thanks for using CodeRabbit! It's free for OSS, and your support helps us grow. If you like it, consider giving us a shout-out. Comment |

In `@player/speaker_termux_test.go`:
- Line 110: Update the test setup around termuxRoot to derive the fixture
directory from t.TempDir() instead of a fixed /tmp path, while preserving the
com.termux component in the resulting PREFIX value and ensuring each test run
uses a unique, automatically cleaned-up directory.
In `@player/speaker_termux.go`:
- Around line 103-104: Synchronize stream startup and teardown in the Speaker
lifecycle: update runStream and Player.Close/Clear so the old stream cannot
start or access the client while t.stream and t.client are being cleared. Reset
started and errored after teardown, preserving safe immediate Play-then-Clear
behavior and allowing playback after New, Close, and New.
- Around line 363-364: Update the PulseAudio startup flow around cmd.Run in
SpeakerInit to use exec.CommandContext with a bounded timeout, canceling the
context after use; return false when the startup command times out or otherwise
fails so socket discovery and initialization cannot block indefinitely.
- Line 248: Update discoverPulseSocketWithProbe’s retry sleep before sleepFunc
so the requested backoff is capped at the time remaining until the 500 ms
deadline, using deadline.Sub(nowFunc()). Preserve the existing retry sequence
while ensuring no sleep exceeds the remaining deadline.
- Around line 88-96: Update termuxSpeaker.runStream and the surrounding Player
lifecycle so PulseAudio stream failures are propagated to Player rather than
only stored in errored: detect failures that occur after Start returns, close
and recreate the client and stream, and reset started only once recovery is
ready so subsequent Play calls restart audio.

In `@player/speaker_termux.go`:
- Line 118: The Clear path must not reset started while runStream may still
invoke PlaybackStream.Start, because Play → Clear → Play can launch competing
stream goroutines and leave one blocked on the unbuffered startup notification.
Preserve startup ownership through the first Start call, or synchronize the
lifecycle with a mutex or generation token; update the relevant Play, Clear, and
runStream logic and add a regression test covering Play → Clear → Play with
startup pending.

- Around line 153-154: Update runStream to observe PulseAudio connection loss
throughout the stream lifetime, including before the started notification,
rather than checking stream.Error only after stream.Start returns. Ensure loss
wakes blocked startup and triggers recreation of the active stream so Play
recovery works after daemon restarts, and add regressions covering both
pre-start and post-start disconnects.

- Line 414: Update the startup notification flow around notifyStarted and the
ready condition so an Underflow received before Started cannot suppress the
started signal; alternatively, add a deadline to the StartContext startup wait.
Preserve underflow handling after startup while ensuring StartContext always
either observes Started or exits through a bounded timeout.
- Around line 117-119: Update termuxPulseClient.monitor to poll GetServerInfo
only while playback is active and uncorked, so idle sessions and suspended
playback do not perform health checks. Preserve ConnectionClosed handling for
detecting passive connection loss, and use the existing session/playback state
symbols rather than introducing a separate lifecycle mechanism.
In `@player/speaker_beep.go`:
- Line 20: Update beepSpeaker.Close so it does not invoke SpeakerClose; keep the
shared speaker initialized for later player.New calls. Use the existing
SpeakerClear or SpeakerSuspend behavior instead, while preserving the Close
method’s cleanup intent.
In `@player/speaker_termux.go`:
- Line 354: In the session supervision loop, stop resetting backoff during
session creation; record the session start time after it successfully starts,
and reset backoff on the stream Done() path only when the session has remained
active for at least one second. Preserve escalation for sessions that drop
sooner, using the existing backoff and session state flow.

Summary
This PR adds native Termux/Android audio support to cliamp through a PulseAudio backend.
The existing Linux audio backend remains unchanged. When built with
-tags=termux, cliamp uses PulseAudio directly instead of the Linux/ALSA-based audio stack, allowing the ARM64 binary to run natively on Android/Bionic.The Termux backend also discovers Termux's PulseAudio Unix socket and starts PulseAudio when necessary.
Closes #417
Screenshots / video
How to test
Install PulseAudio in Termux and make sure audio output is working.
Build cliamp natively in Termux:
Run the resulting ARM64 binary and play a track.
Verify that audio is played through the Android audio output.
Verify the standard Linux build still works:
Run the test suite:
