I'll see about pulseaudio first, and if discord doesn't work even so
I'll try that. Meanwhile, the ebuilds may change, or even go stable.
Thanks,
Jorge
The slack ebuild might go stable, but the zoom one seems to change too
often to last 30 days before an update, so stable seems unlikely. At
least I don't think either of them pulls in many (or even any) other
unstable packages.
Years ago, pulseaudio seemed to have a bad reputation for being really
difficult to deal with, but that is no longer the case, so hopefully
you'll make progress in that direction.
