Hello Hermann,

the latest version 0.6.6 is available from the Ubuntu Hardy
repository.

Pulseaudio is a very promising audio output technology
for the future. It is possible to controll audio connections
from different cliens (e.g. volume), it is transparent over
network, it could do sophisticated mixing, audio stream
redirection, it is very well extensible etc. However, currently
there are still some issues both in Pulse Audio and
in Speech Dispatcher module for Pulse Audio, so I don't
know if there are any immediate advantages
right now.

Please let us know if it persists with the latest version 0.6.6.
