I have been having audio problems that have got worse with time.
When I loaded F8 I did the rpm -e pulse-audio but the updates have
really turned it back on. So I did what you did and it cleared up the
audio again.
Alas I use VLC and it removed that as well, but I just got it all
back and it is working fine. It was vlc movies that had the worst audio
problems. But that is fixed.
Thanks!
