Sigh. Pulseaudio solves nothing, introduces lots of regressions by
hammering a shim between the applications and the system, and in my
opinion it only gained popularity because that Poettering guy works for
Red Hat and used Fedora to push it out.

I'm really wishing that real OSS gets back into the game, but I don't
think that'll happen any time soon. There still seems to be bad blood
and mistrust.
