It's possible to pin pulseaudio so it never returns and you will of
course have alsa only issues with which to deal afterwards.

Subject: Re: MPLAYER KILLS SPEECH
Hey Craig: The only time I see that behaviour is when pulseaudio is running
and it gets in the way of multiple audio streams. To check if that's the case
you can:
ps aux | grep pulse
And kill it off it pulseaudio is running. You should also check to see
if there is a pulseaudio.conf or something like that in
/usr/share/alsa/ and remove it which will prevent alsa from restarting
it.
That's my only suggestion. You can try removing the pulseaudio package
but it is a dependency for a lot of other packages so will probably be
reinstalled on future apt upgrades.

Hi, guys,
I have a weird thing going on. When I start M player, it runs through
the file o.k, but nothing comes out of the speakers, and all my speech
goes away in my text consoles.
I'm running Wheezy Debian Seven sixty-four-bit. What say you?
