This is Debian and vlc-pulseaudio-plugin got removed but these errors 
happen when pulseaudio-plugin is installed too.  Finally, linux can work 
perfectly well not only without $DISPLAY being set, it can work perfectly 
well without a mouse or monitor attached to a computer.  I have neither 
attached nor do I have any eye candy on this machine.  One of these days I 
figure to write a proper vlc configuration file and direct vlc at dummy 
for display.  I hope that doesn't break all of the internal commands I can 
use while playing media with vlc though.
