hello,
My thoughts. Pulse Audio has more functionality then Alsa. Alsa is great
for a low level system meaning only command line access. If you run a
graphical environment you will not be able to get discovery of sound
automatically unless of course you write some sort of scripts for Alsa.
I happen to think though that when Pulse Audio was beginning to be upon
the Linux community most of us who used Espeakup relied on Alsa
heaviely. Now its a bit of a problem for a user who wants the desktop
experience.
Thats just what I see.
