Yes of course, that's how I used audacious before I used packages with PulseAudio backend. PulseAudio is not compatible with the ALSA dmix plugin, so I had to change over every audio client from ALSA/dmix to PulseAudio. Please don't tell me I have to stop using other programs or buy more sound cards. PulseAudio is described as CPU and energy saving by the developer, so I'm wondering what's happening here. If audacious is just sitting there -- not playing audio -- it shouldn't use up any CPU resources.
