ESD is in a bad way atm, it seems to be causing everything to hang now and again. Disabling it, however, only loses you login/logout sounds.
With that perspective, maybe using PA purely as a drop-in for ESD and nothing else wouldn't be too bad a situation. Of course, this would be using ALSA DMix. I still think going the whole way with PA is the better solution. -- Default ALSA device must use PulseAudio, otherwise ALSA applications may fail https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/198453 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
