PulseAudio in fact works fine even with the default settings, just uses 100% cpu usage. I added your suggested settings to my copy of daemon.conf, restarted PulseAudio, and still have 100% CPU usage in mplayer and Firefox. So unfortunately, I don't think that's the culprit. Perhaps I need to compile a "vanilla" version instead of the pkgsrc version and see what happens with the CPU usage (and also look at other system's default settings). -- William D.
