You can take a look at it there if you like (the devel, not > the users list). I'm curious if I'll ever get a response... Yeah I spotted you're orignial one on the list so will keep an eye on it. You should maybe ask some of the Ubuntu folks who deal with the live system. You can maybe ask TheMuso on #pulseaudio IRC as he may be able to help (he's the Ubuntu packager) Sorry I couldn't be more helpful, but at least you're getting there.
