I have 12.04 plus KXStudio wich is quite the same as US and PA does not
cause any serious trouble anymore. It only messes up some mixer-settings
but only for apps that are irrelevant for music-production (namely
Skype) performance-wise there are absolutely *no* issues caused by PA
anymore. I can record in Ardour from Youtube with no glitches ;-)
