Hi Will. Just stick to writing music, and by the way we havn't had anything 
from you lately.

If pulseaudio does turn up as a new package when you update, and the sound was 
working just fine before that, then just disable the darned thing, as it can 
cause problems that didn't exist before.

I've used Alsa since Fedora Core 1, but come Fedora 8, pulseaudio is now 
installed as default, and the sounds with my Audigy2 soundblaster card, no 
longer worked.  Removing the package "alsa-plugins-pulseaudio" got the sounds 
working again.

Thankfully none of my other distros, Debian, Kubuntu, or Archlinux have forced 
Pulseaudio onto me.

Nigel.
