I'm not going to pretend I am an expert on audio frameworks and such but I will say this; every Linux distribution that i have installed that uses Pulse I have not been able to get sound working, this after a few hours of effort. I am not saying that it is necessarily pulse, maybe it is the maintainer who is to blame?
Inversely since boomer was integrated into Indiana's Dev branch I have not been able to find a system on which audio *does not* work! To those who contributed anything to OSS and Boomer, thank you for delivering something solid that works so well.
