Public bug reported:

The lubuntu-desktop package depends on pavucontrol-qt, which in turn
depends on pulseaudio, meaning that PulseAudio is forced upon anyone who
wants to use Ubuntu's LXQt flavor.  This is problematic for those of us
to whom PulseAudio is intolerable, and for those who simply prefer an
ALSA-only system.  It also seems unnecessary, given that the xubuntu-
desktop package merely "recommends" pavucontrol, and pavucontrol merely
"recommends" pulseaudio.

Please downgrade these dependencies from "depends" to "recommends" or
"suggests".
