The package suggests mkchromecast-pulseaudio: ``` Package: mkchromecast-pulseaudio Version: 0.3.8.1-1 State: not installed Priority: optional Section: sound Maintainer: Muammar El Khatib <muam...@debian.org> Architecture: all Uncompressed Size: 16.4 k Depends: pavucontrol, pulseaudio-utils, pulseaudio, mkchromecast Description: Pulseaudio dependencies to cast with mkchromecast This dependency package contains an informational list of packages which are considered essential for using mkchromecast together with pulseaudio sound server. This package also depends on the packages on that list. Homepage: http://mkchromecast.com Tags: admin::hardware, role::plugin, works-with::audio ``` Taking a closer look at the description of Mkchromecast there is the following text: ``` mkchromecast can cast using either pulseaudio or ALSA. The respective dependencies can be pulled by mkchromecast-pulseaudio and mkchromecast-alsa dependency packages respectively. For more information, please read the README.Debian file shipped in this package. ``` I think this bug should be closed. Let me know what you think. Best, -- Muammar El Khatib. Linux user: 403107.
