I reported a bug on the mailing list about 21 months ago and got a response from Chuck Ebbert at redhat that removing pulseaudio is the solution to get sound working: https://listman.redhat.com/archives/rhl-beta-list/2007-October/msg00924.html I tried pulseaudio again each subsequent release and got the same results and then finally filed this bug report: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=502380 So far no requests for more information or suggested changes. :( Removal of pulseaudio still works for me, and by the number of complaints I see on mailing lists, I have concluded that pulseaudio doesn't work for a lot of people despite having been included in fedora for nearly 2 years. The problem is that it's becoming increasingly painful to remove pulseaudio because of dependencies.
