When pulseaudio is enabled, all sound is delayed on the order of 1/2 seconds, which makes Orca a nightmare to use for blind users. It's completely unacceptable for a main machine. When pulseaudio is disabled, speech performance is great. I filed a bug about this in November:
http://www.mail-archive.com/ubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com/msg1823018.html However, there's no progress on this issue so far. My question is: Are we going to be able to fix the unacceptable delay in pulseaudio before Lucid releases in April, or should blind/VI users instead focus on finding workarounds for all the bugs that now exist when pulseaudio is disabled? I know the "right" answer is to fix pulseaudio. What I'm looking for is the practical solution that will actually exist in April. If anyone knows how to begin tracking down the pulseaudio delay problem, let me know and I'll take a look. For now, I have no idea.
