[Bug 198453] Re: Default ALSA device must use PulseAudio, otherwise ALSA applications may fail

[Zenigata]

Well I think pulseaudio is one of the thing that was a little bit too
fast harshed into ubuntu. As of now it disables the use of lots of
features of Alsa and the latest update of hardy screwed my settings one
more time.

People should have the choice between an feature missing cpu expensive
pulseaudio and a correctly set Alsa, and updates should'nt reset theirs
settings.

It is not acceptable that after an update, one loses its ALSA device, so
that it becomes impossible for him to easily set  his volume and that
gnome's audio preferences falls the default device to the oss interface.

I do hope that the pulse-audio implementation in Intrepid won't be as
messy as the one in hardy, but the audio problems induced by hardy
pulseaudio arevery nerving me and make me consider switching to other
distrib.

For now I have applications that complain about not finding sound a.s.o.
gnome mixer is unusable.
