It is possible for things to be adjusted such that if you remove a package, the audio metapackage remains installed. This is done by moving all the packages the ubuntustudio-audio metapackage pulls in from being direct dependencies, to recommends. The packages still get installed, due to recommends being installed by default.

It could avoid confusion, I guess. Stefan
