[ATrpms-users] Pulseaudio hit us

Hi,

we have been hit by pulseaudio in F8. It is the default now for all users.

This is controlled by this file, unless it is commented or moved to
~/.asoundrc.

/etc/alsa/pulse-default.conf

There is a new gui (PulseAudio Volume Control)  that permits to control
several
audio applications at the same time and move the stream to any sound card
(if you have more than one) at run time.

Anyway, despite of the fact whether one likes it or not, it is there, and
unless it is disabled, every sound application must have a pulse plugin to
be
properly integrated in the new environment.

I compiled xmms-pulse, which works just fine (audacious plugin stutters,
unfortunately).

<http://people.atrpms.net/%7Epcavalcanti/rpms/rpms8-x86_64/xmms-pulse-0.9.4-1.fc8.x86_64.rpm>

However, mplayer and mythtv must be patched, by what I have read:

http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/PerfectSetup

Question: does anyone have interest in getting the plugins for these two
applications?

I rebuilt mplayer (it works), but I do not know if it worth the hassle of
uploading it and asking Axel to create another version.
