[PD] [PD-announce] Pd-extended 0.43.4 release candidate 1: last chance to report your bugs

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

Hey Sei,

I hope the old behavior works for you, because it turns out that its quite a bit more complicated than I thought, so its not the kind of change that should be made without lots of time for testing on many different setups with different audio devices.  I reverted my change that only affect portaudio, i.e. when you select a device name in Pd-extended's Audio Settings.
