While developers are not comfortable with pulseaudio, turning it into a default is a bad idea.
1) Some developers are fine with pulseaudio, so please speak on behalf of yourself rather then of "developers". Disclaimer I've written patches to the alsa code for many a program to work properly with pulseaudio's alsa glue layer as well as (re)written the SDL pulseaudio backend. 2) Developers who are not comfortable with pulseaudio now, should better learn pulseaudio since that is what the majority of our users are using 3) I'm not making pulseaudio default *at all*. I'm making the "default" alsa device the default. Which seems like a very sane default to me. Does your "default" alsa device happen to point to pulseaudio, and you don't want that, plenty of options: 1) pass -alsa-pb hw.... to xawtv (requires no pulseaudio knowledge) 2) Set a different default alsa device in .alsarc (requires no pulseaudio knowledge, trivial alsa knowledge) 3) Do rpm -e alsa-plugins-pulseaudio Noe that 3 will permanently make any alsa using app use alsa directly instead of PA, which seems to be just what you want.
