That would cover anything using Xorg.
I doubt there will ever be "coreaudio" style linux audio api. But isn't
this all dealt with by jackd? I mean couldn't any application written
for jackd run on different audio drivers? I'm not a programmer, but I
thought jackd already serves as a "common audio layer".
i.e. `alsa' `coreaudio' `dummy' `oss' or `portaudio' support is
there.

Well, I'm
using KDE and plan on sticking with it, so this
is of interest to me and I expect others getting started on
linux/audio.
Have fun: you'll know confusing things :) .
Aren't Gnome and KDE working to be
"compatible" ie apps in
one run in the other?
Yeah, freedesktop.org is somehow a common base both try to
use.
Worse: Because there's no common audio layer in linux, I guess
that Gnome and KDE will start using a common soundserver, but
then again it's again a KDE/Gnome only solution.
