What is Debian's (ALSA-maintainer's) policy on this? Is it satisfactory to be supplying software that even an experienced user finds too complicated to set up?

I spent a fair amount of time trying to work out how to get ALSA to work like I wanted it to. As far as I can see it should be possible but I would need to spend a good deal more time learning about alsa in order to set it up. In the end I gave up and installed PulseAudio, which sort of works.

Is this the policy, to use PulseAudio for multiple devices? This seems to involve a whole lot of extra packages that should not be necessary.

I guess this is at least as much an upstream issue, but I do not know how much is about how the Debian packages are installed.
