Hard to take your idea about pulse seriously as your hate for both pulse 
and it's author have been well expressed. I knpw there are ways to get 
around using pulse and still having desktop sound, but they all require 
hacking the desktop packages to make it happen. This would require more 
maintenance than we are ever likely to have manpower for.

I personally don't use gladish either, but it may make test setup more 
reproducable in some cases.

Anything that can show what is connected, what ports are available and 
allows connecting ports in some easier way than typing out the whole port 
names.
