I'd like our music or video players to turn down and/or pause when I receive
a VoIP call. I'd like delicious plug

Daemons for sound routing are not just suboptimal, they are wrong. We have
better ways (at least on Linux) nowadays. Any solution based on the idea
of a userspace daemon is wrong. Not just suboptimal (which is

Hello,
First of all, I would like to thanks all the people that participated
in the discussion of MouseTweaks during the accessibility summit, and
especially those that made it possible to have it demoed during that

Hi Francesco:
You're welcome! Thanks for your work on MouseTweaks. :-)
The module proposing guidelines are here, with the main timeframes being
listed under the Decision Making section:

I would really go with this design, I don't know why very few
other alternative menus follow this concept.
Denis, which design are you referring to here?
I meant the concept of multiple smaller menus instead of one big one,
like now with Applications/Places/System.
I see now, thanks for clarifying.

Yes, that's the general case, and the way (for example) Jack does it too.
Both Jackd and PA are very careful to drop the root privilege first thing on
startup. Nevertheless, even that is no longer necessary - on recent kernels,

All the other programs requiring access to mixing services then deliver
their streams to that process

But to get back to the original point of allowing hardware mixing if it
