Hmm, well, it doesn't seem to be the classic problem that some app is
hugging your soundcard.. but I wonder, what are all those processes
doing with libsndfile? then again I sit on archlinux, either way it
shouldn't be a problem as far as I know.. There is also something called
"pulseaudi" in there too, typo?
Btw, Can't you just remove pulseaudio altogether? or is it trapped in
some kind of nasty dependency hell?
