GNOME & KDE are complete development platforms, so they need to support
the development of audio applications.
I'm not saying they should develop new libraries. Just that they need to
standardize on particular APIs/libraries that all work together OK.
(I think both GNOME & KDE are considering switching audio APIs at the
moment, so now is a good time for the linux-audio community to get
involved.)
