If I'm not mistaken, it was your original idea to test a setup where
all audio sources can be played together with Pd, i.e. Pd + PulseAudio
+ JACK, and compare with Pd's current default routing (plain ALSA). So
that's what I did. I'm now eager to know results from others before
further delving into it.

Flash plugin indeed (no problem with Pulse on Xubuntu). Should we
better find an HTML5 stream for the test?
