                mixing-- for example,<br>
                &gt; &gt; you could watch a tutorial on youtube and get
                sound out of a running<br>
                &gt; &gt; instance of Pd without doing any configuration
                whatsoever. &nbsp;(At<br>
                &gt; &gt; least that's what Pulse Audio claims-- I
                haven't used it so much.)<br>

                &gt; &nbsp;It's hard to stay polite about this, for me it has
                never worked<br>
                &gt; correctly,<br>
                &gt; the best way to have sound always going out from
                audiocard on<br>

              It's hard not to get political about this, but for me
              pulseaudio has<br>
              always worked as expected and it basically freed me of
              hassling around<br>
              with Linux audio issues. The only hassle about it are
              softwares like Pd<br>
              that prevent it from working silently by not supporting
              it.<br>

            <div>Most of the PA haters were born from using Fedora or
              Ubuntu between 2008 and 2011 (not exact dates).&nbsp; Fedora
              and Ubuntu, as early adopters of about every software
              package in development, routinely break some kind of
              important system.&nbsp; If you were using a sane distro during
              that time, you probably barely noticed.&nbsp; I did just enough
              PA hatin' to remember why.<br>

    Well, if I choose the ALSA API from within Pure Data, it works with
    PulseAudio but it won't share the soundcard with other programs.<br>
