I run some audio software that I do not want interrupted while it is running. So, I use pavucontrol to turn it off to pulse and make it available only to alsa. Then, I can directly configure, send commands to, and use the sound device, ignored by pulse. As near as I can tell, it is still available in audacity, as well. alsa is going nowhere since it is the interface to the hardware that every other sound application depends on. It is mature so it should take very little maintenance to allow it to remain. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
