IMCO, If a piece of software requires PulseAudio, it deserves to be
silent.
..agreed, except the Tor Browser users are a little too important to
leave alone in PulseAudio/Systemd hands, for some Tor Browser users,
this is a life or death issue, as some regimes actually do commit
murders on people they like to see dead and buried.
I run a studio and muck around with "pro" linux audio apps from time
to time but mostly xwax. That is why I knew Systemd would be no
good.
I want to hear the excuses for wasting CPU cycles and damaging ears
from you-know-who.
..I'd rather use this thread for practical advice on setting up
alsa + apulse + torbrowser configurations, which will be more
useful to Tor Browser users not trusting PulseAudio or Systemd.
I've been waiting for a good apulse howto to appear for along time.
Maybe that time has finally come.
I would contribute.
I did manually set XFCE's firefox launch buttons to run "apulse
firefox" instead of firefox directly, I could also patch
/usr/share/applications/firefox-esr.desktop to do the same, but I'd
like
to devise a way just installing apulse would set everything up for
users
automatically in the post-install script. This way people (especially
not technically minded ones) would have less fiddling to do to
customize
their systems. And I'd bet even non techies would appreciate sparing
themselves some time just to let their system behave in a sane way.
But let's start with a simple howto first.
Where shall we coordinate our effort, push our contributions to?
Thanks for the offer Alessandro! The best place(s) to put that info
would be a HowTo under 'Documentation' on the dev1galaxy.org forum or on
the Friends of Devuan wiki at
https://friendsofdevuan.org/doku.php/start. Actually would be good to
have something in both places. Ping me if you have any questions. If
you're coming to the d1conf, you could even do a presentation about it!!
And if it's not definitively solved to your satisfaction by then, there
could be a hacking session to get it done. :D
