Hi, on Wheezy/Sid here I use Pulseaudio without problem. VLC is configured
to output to pulse (vlc-plugin-pulse installed), works fine here, vlc and
flash or anything else. I use KDE, did nothing special to make it work, only
timidity gave me trouble but it was easily solved. User belongs to "pulse"
group.


Before posting my initial message, I have actually read the
debian-user mailing list archives, and I know for a fact that
PulseAudio can generate some heated discussions.

I do know that PulseAudio works for most people. Thanks for your vote
of confidence. But please, don't transform this thread on
yet-anoter-X-software-is-{awesome/crap}. I want my sound working, and
I want to fix PulseAudio.

Thanks again,


Wasn't my intention, was responding to :

"I'm a software developer myself, and I can't help keep asking myself, why is PulseAudio an strong dependency on Gnome? What advantages does
                                                  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
PulseAudio gives me as a user over good ol' ALSA?"
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Kind of sounds as an invite for yet another a heated discussion over the merits of pulse... I tried to be factual, give clues of what could be missing in your setup, and did say in another part of the message that I wasn't a pulseaudio "fanboy", just a currently happy user.

Sorry for polluting your thread with silly attempts to help you.
