To redirect some of this energy, how about trying to figure out pulseaudio for
the common user, who may want to do uncommon things. I have 2 audio systems
in this box, and PA refuses to recognize the Audigy2 (emu10k1 driven) card I
use for everything BUT skype. If I want sound at all, I have to excise as
much of it as kde will allow in order that my sound work at all.
