Hi there!
I am more or less new to lxd/lxc and facing the follwing problem:
I installed snapd and tried to install the vlc snap.
after installation I tried to run the snap but got some permission error:
vlc --help
cannot perform operation: mount --make-rshared /snap: Permission denied
Any hints how to solve this, so that i can run snaps inside the lxd container?
Thx Benjamin.

I got it to work but its hacky as anything, hopefully someone can come along and correct with better instructions;
Grab the x11 profile from simos blog
Edit the x11 profile and change “PASocket1” listen
to /home/ubuntu/pulse-native
lxc launch ubuntu: vlc -p default -p x11
lxc exec snap vlc
snap install vlc
su ubuntu
vlc
I didn’t test audio.
The apt version of VLC didn’t work any better (but the likes of firefox still worked fine with X11 profile).
In the case of VLC, if your using the SNAP, you might be better of just installing it on the host.
Okay thank for the reply!
Hmm I am already running a similar profile (Kodi is already working audio- and videowise)

Thing is that all snaps complain about the permissions…And I need to install also other snaps where there is no apt installation available…
