Re: [orca-list] [ANNOUNCE] libao (new audio driver for speechd including working pulseaudio support).

[Rui Batista <ruiandrebatista gmail com>]

Hi,

The libao driver works really good but has one drawback I think this
solution solves (if it works, I haven't tested yet). It imposes no hard
dependency on libao... With libao we have another configuration file
external from speech-dispatcher and so one, not talking about the build
dependencies and runtime ones. I guess themuso must comment on this and
decide what's better. For me anythink (libao or simple pulse driver
works) but there could be packaging and logistic distribution issues
with the libao aproach.
