They don't have to use ALSA directly, but they can use a
common library which uses ALSA directly like polypaudio.
That's true. KDE also runs on other operating systems like BSD
or even Win, so they still need an abstraction like
polypaudio, gstreamer or portmidi, and this one needs to be
prepared for all other supported platforms.
Maybe I am stupid and therefore I have to ask: What is the rationale for
running KDE (or Gnome?) in an MS Win environment?
What is the rationale for doing anything? Fun? Sex? Ego? Evolution? Nonsense?
It's up2you!
No, but honestly. I have friends successfully running their DAW under
Win.
Why should they change from the MS window-manager to KDE? To Gnome?
(and given the choices you mention above, I would go for 'sex')
