Hi,

* Downgrading the bug to important again (which IMHO is now even
more the most appropriate severity) and adding a paragraph to
README.Debian or similar to mention this issue.
I've discussed this with Gregor on IRC and we came to the conclusion
that disabling audio by default plus adding the above mentioned
warning should suffice to downgrade this issue from RC to important.
Due to the Jessie release date being quite close[1] and this being one
of the bug reports listed on [2], I plan to do an NMU with the above
mentioned characteristics either directly to unstable or at most to
DELAYED-1 -- mostly depending on how quickly I manage to get a
suitable package.
I've just uploaded bb 1.3rc1-8.2 to DELAYED/1. Following is the
reduced debdiff which contains all manual changes. If necessary, I can
also reschedule the upload.
Building the source package always updates config.guess and
config.sub, but I suppressed them from the following debdiff.

+BB vs PulseAudio
+
+
+Unfortunately BB does not work under X if PulseAudio is active and
+Music is requested. If you have PulseAudio installed and want to show
+off BB with Music, you can do that by switching to the virtual text
+console and running BB there.
+
+Due to this issue Music in BB is turned of by default in Debian.
+
+This issue is tracked in the Debian Bug Tracking System at
+https://bugs.debian.org/761023

I'll also file an unblock request for that upload soon.
Regards, Axel
