I didn't do anything with it. My default is simply no action, to leave things unchanged from the previous state. I copied over settings from my desktop computer (which was running Devuan Beowulf 32-bit) to this new laptop (running Devuan Chimaera 64-bit). I made no other changes. Moreover, my settings sometimes would change (it seems) from one reboot to the next, even though I had done nothing. Sometimes everything would run fine on alsa alone, without pulse; then I would need pulse; then alsa wouldn't work at all; then some things worked only with pulse, others only with alsa; then, the last straw, no sound at all in any videos. It is because it hasn't been working right that I now must resort to these command-line tricks. Otherwise I wouldn't bother.
