[Bug 1184643] Re: Upgrade to 13.04 installs pulseaudio

 

I ported it to pulseaudio (Steve, maybe you don't remember but we
discussed about that on #shimmer when you were online a few months ago).
Since ubuntu uses pulseaudio by default almost everywhere, xfce4-volumed
wasn't working well with it (mute issues, problematic detection of the
default card, etc.). Xfce4-mixer >= 4.10 has volume keys' support, so
people who hate pulseaudio can use it.

Bug description:
  Upgrading from 12.10 to 13.04 installs pulseaudio.  This causes all
  kinds of audio issues for me.  Removing pulseaudio fixes things.
  Here's what I've found in my dist-upgrade log files.

  My apt.log file contains the following.

    new important dependency: pulseaudio:i386
    Installing pulseaudio as Recommends of xfce4-volumed

  xfce4-volumed was installed with a clean 12.04 install and kept at the
  same version after the 12.10 upgrade.  I'm assuming removing
  xfce4-volumed before upgrading to 13.04 would fix the problem.  Not
  sure how this is done in the upgrade process itself though.
