The problem is getting things working for newbies. This has never worked for me, but I haven't tried Karmic yet:
i don't think karmic will make any diference.
- install default Ubuntu setup
- install puredata.deb or pd-extended.deb
- launch pd using the GNOME menu item
- then check sound
This works on Mac OS X and Windows. I am guessing that you don't run pulseaudio, so that is a non-default config.
i do run pulse audio. when pulse audio don't use the sound card, pd can use it. the only modification to the audio configuration i'm doing is removing ubuntu sound.
I still think a crappy working config is a better default than a non-working config.
what is the problem with pasuspender? you can't watch youtube video when using pd, but pd should always act normal.
so, pasuspender is crappy, padsp is very crappy...
I use jack and pulseaudio at the same time without using pasuspender. First I start up jack, then I load pulseaudio. I have pulseaudio load the jack-sink and jack-source as the default source and sink. That way firefox flash videos and all that use jack with a higher latency via the pulseaudio plugin, and my actual audio tools use jack directly with a lower latency. I have had no problems with this since I figured out how to do it.
The issue with making this a default for new users is that it requires jack to be running at login, and for pulseaudio to be setup properly to be using jack for all input / output.
