So what steps could one take to try removing pulseaudio? Just "sudo yum
remove pulseaudio"?

Thanks

Looking back through my logwatch that seems to be what I did.

In a number of distributions over a period spanning many years, removing pulseaudio has been a first, and all too often entirely successful, means of getting sound working.

Pulseaudio would be exhibit A in a counterargument to a claim that "all the distributions are doing it."

I think it is possible for distributions to get Pulseaudio right. Sabayon and Linux Mint seem, in my experience, to be two that have done so. But even so, unless you have a specialized need for Pulseaudio, which apparently may include very high-end audiophile applications, removing it seems generally harmless.
