Since I did this a long time ago don't remember exact details. Got it. /usr/share/alsa/ has the following files: alsa.conf pulse-alsa.conf pulse.conf alsa.conf loads pulse.conf, which looks like the libpulse plugin. # PulseAudio alsa plugin configuration file to set the pulseaudio plugin as # default output for applications using alsa when pulseaudio is running. hook_func.pulse_load_if_running { lib "libasound_module_conf_pulse.so" func "conf_pulse_hook_load_if_running" } @hooks [ { func pulse_load_if_running files [ "/usr/share/alsa/pulse-alsa.conf" "/etc/asound.conf" "~/.asoundrc" ] errors false } ] Hmmm.... Will try replacing this with an empty file in the morning.... Right now bed.
