PS: Since the OP experienced issues with pulseaudio, an easy way to get rid of it, without the need to stop it or to care about hard dependencies, is to build an empty dummy package. Doing this for Ubuntu and Debian takes a few seconds, using https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-helpers.en.html . _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
