hi Not to go off topic, but I keep hearing comparisons between linux and windows in this regard. I haven't used windows in ages, but how does windows avoid this problem, or does it? Maybe we could do something similar to what they do? I still say pulse audio needs to fix this, and keep it fixed. It's unfeasable for all of the applications that don't play nice with pulse audio to be updated to work with it. In addition to some possibly no longer being updated, some developers are dead set against pulse audio and will simply refuse to make their application play nice with it. The multi system emulator mednafen is one example. The developer is well aware that pulse audio causes problems, but simply refuses to fix it. Yet she insists that she doesn't run into problems on windows, which is what prompted me to bring it up.
