I have moved to that comment, too. People tend to think of wine as running
stupid and optional games, but it's the only way for disabled people to get
speech recognition on Linux, and I refuse to give it up.
And by the way, when alsa/wine runs speech rec, it runs it very well. The speed
is
Uh, yes there is. Wine and Crossover still do not support Pulse. And for
that reason I refuse to use it.
On top of that, ALSA alone has never, EVER given me a problem, whereas
adding Pulse into the mix only causes them.
I find it completely preposterous that I can now not add the gnome-
for the peoples that removed Pulseaudio because skype.
the skype team has released a new beta of skype that is fully integrated with
Pulseaudio. With the new beta of skype the controls of volume and device to use
are totally in charge of Pulse and the cpu is not stressed when making a call.
So
This kind of bug fix doesn't get backported to Jaunty, right?

#45, Vincenzo,
The gstmix version of gnome-volume-control is deprecated. It is
maintained for Solaris by Solaris guys. It's not meant to be a 1-1
substitute of the new gnome-volume-control, which uses the PulseAudio
features (I won't make the long list here).
We decided to opt-in for PulseAudio
This is resolved upstream now (the applet will be less agressive when
trying to restart Pulseaudio)

I risked to burn my laptop yesterday. It's extremely hot due to this

--
gnome-volume-control-applet takes up to 40%
It's not high priority, as it does not use 40% CPU on a default install.
It's only doing that for you because you broke it by uninstalling
Pulseaudio. Admittedly, it shouldn't do that but it will not affect most
users and doesn't affect a default install, so it's not high priority.
--
Vincenzo, this would not necessarily be a high prio bug even if it did
affect a larger user base. Two suggestions for you:
1) sudo renice 20 `pidof gnome-volume-control-applet`
Check the result with top. Your CPU should spent much time niced now.
2) change the CPU frequency governor with
above suggestions would work for all similar situations as well.
Vincenzo, you didn't read the bug carefully before ranting here
unnecessarily. Comment 27 and 28 already tell you how to completely
remedy the situation. Works fine for me, I don't see this problem
anymore.
--
I did not understand that it was caused by pulseaudio missing, that's my
fault, sorry. Then it is NOT a bug in the default desktop. Sorry for
ranting, this is only a bug for those people that can't use pulseaudio
(e.g. I need skype). Sorry for noise. In any case gnome-volume-control
does NOT work

Same thing for me here:

- looking at .xsession-errors: this file is oversized too : over 25 Mio

With this the gnome-volume-control(-applet) doesn't try to reconnect,

No we shouldn't. g-v-c-applet is a pulseaudio client and should be able
to autospawn the daemon on demand, like it does currently. Rather than
adding in workarounds for users who choose to go through the bother of
