I've had fun playing around with pulse... but in the end I finally had
to get some work done & on this system just blew out everything
pulseaudio related. I found that with pulseaudio I could play sound
across my lan - that was cool, but then couldn't play sound in flash on
SeaMonkey (Firefox 'Ubuntu' was OK, but not SeaMonkey). I tried just
about every pulseaudio page/trick in the book & as soon as I'd get
something working, some other app would fail because of PA.
