How are users responding to the development of
PulseAudio and its
inclusion in Linux distribution installations? Remove it afterward and
revert to pure ALSA, disabling Gnome and KDE specific soundservers?
KDE's Phonon has a config-tool that allows to set Phonon to use Xine and
Xine can be compiled to support JACK so with KDE4 no trouble by design.
PA is most different: neither in UBUNTU nor in Fedora I found a way to
configure it as needed.
Learning to live with PulseAudio and how to make it
work well with
Ardour, Jamin, Rosegarden, Muse, Qtractor, Qjackctl, etc.? :-)
I think, on could live with PA and JACK side by side - it would be nice
to have a Desktop-Soundserver working OK with JACK but JACK is the
priority and if something causing trouble and does not provide an easy
way to fix it, I remove it.
I do not see a faint trace of a reason to avoid giving the user a tool
to configure a soundserver and I do not have the nerve/time to find out
how to trick PA to use JACK and to keep off from ALSA. If PA tries to
make my life with Desktop-audio easier it failed completely.
