Elisa uses GStreamer to play sound so you can set which type of audio
output you want it to use by typing:
gstreamer-properties
in a terminal, this program is also called Multimedia Systems Selector in
the Ubunutu system menu.
Select alsa and you should be good to go. If it is still using pulseaudio
after that, then you can close the pulseaudio server by using:
killall pulseaudio
before running elisa.

Hello
Is it really necessary to run the PulseAudio on top of ALSA when running
Elisa.
When removing visialization 10% of the CPU is used when streaming from
the internet to my Acer Aspire One. Python uses 1/3 of this and pulse
the rest.
Is it possible instead to save CPU power and thereby not heating the CPU
so much by running directly to ALSA.
Best Regards,
