- Does anyone using GNU/Linux system want to use pulse-audio with
Pd? The main reason would be easy software mixing-- for example, you could watch a tutorial on youtube and get sound out of a running instance of Pd without doing any configuration whatsoever. (At least that's what Pulse Audio claims-- I haven't used it so much.)
It's hard to stay polite about this, for me it has never worked correctly, the best way to have sound always going out from audiocard on linux/ubuntu is about removing pulse-audio, since ever, everytime.
Could you give some details here:
I can say it functions on Debian Wheezy when using the ALSA api, though I haven't tested it very heavily.
