it is useful only if you really want pulseaudio, or if you really need
skype. For me alsa/jack works very nice and no I had zero work to
configure.

well, that's not a strong argument for pro audio under linux, maybe
true for desktop on ubuntu. I really see no point installing
pulseaudio at all, unless cases like yours.
