Hi Johannes,

PulseAudio is not a strict dependency for Kazam. A "--nosound" flag is
provided to start it without that dependency. Though it should
probably fallback gracefully or at least mention this in an error
message. In fact it looks like it does attempt to fail gracefully, but
this is not working:

As such, I'm leaving this open but downgrading the status to normal.

Thanks,
