I understand. I never really figured out how to get rid of pulse audio on fedora systems. I've always configured to use my arch installation with alsa. I've not had a need for a second audio device. Though I do believe if your doing some type of recording... A second audio device might be needed. I think i read a few postings on how to disable pulse audio on Fedora a while back. Which included touching /usr/bin/pulseaudio and removing pulseaudio and the pulse audio alsa plugins. This is probably not the right way to do it though. I to rely on speakup and haven't found a way to disable pulseaudio when installing fedora. When I tried disabling pulse audio this way system audio would break and I would not have speach. Now if you have to configure aound.conf in /etc... I did not do so since I only have one sound card on this system. On my currently arch installation I have an .asoundrc file to have the proper mic use for voice calls. Any suggestions would be appreciated and perhaps I'll give fedora a try once again.
