Re: [orca-list] beeps on progress bar updates, thoughts?

["B. Henry" <burt1iband gmail com>]

What ever the solution is it should be audio layer independent. 
The majority, probably vast majority of folks are using pulse as far as I know, but yes, some of us are 
oldschool for good or bad reasons and still 
running alsa only systems, and who knows where the hearts and minds  of Orca users will be in a year or 
three. 
Maybe systemd will swallow up pulse, break backwards compatibility, and most major distros will drink the 
coolaid...lol
Cheers,
