Be that as it may,

a) it's the standard audio setup for Ubuntu, I'd hazard a guess that
the largest number of Linux Flightgear users will use Ubuntu and will
therefore be using pulseaudio (and openal-soft)

b) while to start with when Ubuntu first included it, it was a bit of a
pain, I personally find it pretty trouble free these days and the
ability to use the pa volume control to individually control the
"streams" and move them between devices, and have them automatically
switch to other devices when they become available (think USB audio
devices, like my headset) etc... well, it's all quite handy.
