Hello.
IMHO this is because PulseAudio is somewhat buggy to go into polished
distributions. I hardly could use it on Arch Linux, and I am accustomed to
general Arch Linux's instability. (Arch Linux is bleeding-edge by
definition.) Distributions jumped to PulseAudio too soon. Also, the
developers of PulseAudio could split the source code into stable and trunk
branches.
Instability? I'm not sure which Arch Linux you use, but mine is fine,
with pulseaudio (and without gnome) as well.... Extrapolating a single
user's experiences to a distribution or project is hardly indicative,
and Arch offers you a choice on using pulse or not (Gnome doesn't, but
that's another story).
Bear in mind that you also are extrapolating your experience. Actually,
the original poster (OP) is talking about bugs, so this is at least a
two user experience.
There are a lot of complaints. E.g., search "crackling sound" on Arch
Linux forums. I even saw complaints on forums not dedicated to Linux at
all. Negative image of PulseAudio is becoming folklore.
Returning to OP's claim, please, share your thoughts. Do you think that
the claim is false or you have competing suggestions at hand?
