Re: [orca-list] removing pulse audio. will this work?

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

Life is not necesarily simpler with out pulse. 
Exact steps vary depending on distro, well package names vary more to the point. 
You can't use skype with out pulse, at least not to talk and hear others talk. 
You can set up a hybrid system using dmix where pure alsa is the default where possible, and pulse is used 
when needed. 
What distro are you using? Have you been using it for a while, i.e. have you customized your system in 
important ways? 
You might be best off making a pure alsa system from scratch, e.g. on arch-linux. You could even dual or 
multiboot with one OS being a pure alsa distro 
if you know that this will for some reason mke your podcast production easier than it would be using 
pulseaudio.
Don't forget you'll need to configure speech-dispatcher to use alsa instead of pulse if you do this
At least fairly recently it was possible to remove pulse and have things still work on gnome/debian for 
instance, do not know if anythind has changed in 
gnome  that absolutely requires pulse. 
At lest a release ago one could still install a pulse free mate desktop, again, not possitive about latest 
stable release.
