Still no sound. I tried pulseaudio kill and disable, even rebooted, no luck.
Yes, Kubutu uses pulseaudio like Ubuntu. The only difference is window manager, Kubuntu used KDE and Ubuntu used gnome. In fact when I got to Kubuntu's website for packages or information, often I am redirected to Ubuntu's website.

Everything else seems to work just find, just no sound.

So I got

I unpacked and left in my home directory, limited luck, the moved it to
root.
ao-list does not work. Sound does not work. I get limited and unreliable
connectivity between TeleMetrum and TeleDongle.
You shouldn't need to move it anywhere; altosui should work in place.

Sound troubles are likely caused by pulseaudio, which doesn't play well
with java. The only way I've found to disable this on ubuntu is to make
the daemon not executable:

# chmod -x /usr/bin/pulseaudio

Then kill it

# killall pulseaudio

and now it shouldn't be able to restart.

I am use to apt-get and installing from source, ./configure, make make
install. But this install has me baffled.
I'd hope you wouldn't need this given the distribution-independent
package. The java code should work on pretty much any Linux distribution.
