It works! Both as root and as a normal user. Amazing! So why does
aplay fail? It's a mystery to me!
Assuming you really want to keep Gnome there are several workarounds for
that:
- just remove the gnome-core metapackage and keep all other dependencies
- equivs (either build a replacement metapackage or a replacement
dependency)
- dpkg --force-depends
As much as I dislike pulseaudio (I wish everyone would use alsa), it is
evident that this is the future direction of Debian; so I would like to
find a way for pulseaudio and alsa to peacefully coexist if possible.
Some of us who use a different distro have the option of not using
PA, but when we do use it, we're told that it runs ON TOP OF alsa,
and that you can't run PA without Alsa. So make of that what you will.
For reference, the distro I speak of is PCLinuxOS.
