Pulseaudio is the default sound server on Fedora, and xmms should include the xmms-pulse by default, and prefer to use pa over alsa, also by default. As xmms is configured now, it uses alsa by default, which gets rerouted to pa (via the alsa-pulseaudio plugin in pa), which uses alsa as a backend for playback. From my perspective, this is plain stupid, xmms should just use pa natively, and eliminate the alsa-pa-plugin. It is an unnecessary overhead, IMO. And it also breaks the volume slider for xmms... So what am I missing here? Is it time to bug the xmms maintainers/packagers?
