Why is uninstalling pulse not an option for you? My soundsystem is
working fine with everything without pulse. Do not mix vlc and packman
packages, the multimedia-part of linux-club is full of threads from
those who did ...
Packman repository broken? Perhaps it's a problem with yum? I work with
multimedia-packages from packman since years and it works best until now.

It's also easier to install the pulseaudio for vlc package as I
described above.
So if packman is "broken", should I use the vlc repository instead?

Hi,
I'm sorry if this has been brought up before. :)
So here's the deal:
VLC (the package 'vlc') is missing the package 'vlc-aout-pulse' as
dependency.
'vlc-aout-pulse' is pulseaudio audio out for vlc.
Since opensuse uses pulseaudio by default, this is pretty bad.
As I understand it, if 'vlc-aout-pulse' is not present. vlc uses
alsa, which sends the sound to pulseaudio.
Not only is this bad because of the extra steps, it leads
to actual problems with the sound.
The problem I had was sound that stopped working after un-pause.
Bug which I got the info from:
http://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/5043

Jonathan
