[Bug 281475] Re: OpenAL Soft may trigger a hang and require PulseAudio restart, using ALSA for output and the pulse plugin.

[NY00123]

I've tried setting the ALSA device in ~/.alsoftrc to pulse, with no
success.

Maybe I should noted that I've made a few changes for 6-channels setup.
However, even after renaming ~/.pulse and ~/.alsoftrc to other names, and restarting PulseAudio,
the hang could still be reproduced.

* It should be noted that when I told OpenAL Soft to use OSS, I actually used a wrapper like aoss or padsp.
As a side note, aoss may do the job if you want surround sound.
It may not work with 32-bit applications on 64-bit Ubuntu, though (as libaoss is missing from ia32-libs).
