I hate this bug just as much as anybody else, but let's not forget this is a
_bug report_ for _pulse audio_. It's not a forum, not necessarily a
discussion thread, and not using pulse audio is a solution, but not a
workaround.

Having said that, I am also very interested in find out if there's any real
workaround, so if anybody finds one - let us have it.


DRM 'manages access' in the same way that jail 'manages freedom'.
