Since you obviously use KDE, as all other enlightened souls do. I'm unsure on why you're directing such vitriolic hate on pulseaudio. 70% sound system breakage? Regression which causes more problems than it solves? Perhaps you should specify[1] what you're talking about rather than generalizing. That is, if you're interested in being taken seriously. Split this off, its just noise to most, so I think many would just want to mute this new thread. [1] - note, a 'google about pulseaudio problems' doesn't count as specifying. Googling 'linux problems' gives far more, but we don't take that seriously, do we? Or 'KDE problems', or 'some-piece-of-software problems'
