I would suggest that PulseAudio only be the default on distros that use
it. I use Debian which doesn't use PulseAudio by default, and somehow
this change seems to have trickled into it as well, judging by the
comment from lib/sound.properties to provide feedback on this Launchpad
bug.

Title:
  openjdk should use pulseaudio by default

Status in “openjdk-6” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  openjdk-6-jre-headless use alsa by default. This brake things on karmic where pulseaudio is default sound system (choppy sound and more). The fix is simple:
  edit /etc/java-6-openjdk/sound.properties and change 

  javax.sound.sampled.Clip=com.sun.media.sound.DirectAudioDeviceProvider
  javax.sound.sampled.Port=com.sun.media.sound.PortMixerProvider
  javax.sound.sampled.SourceDataLine=com.sun.media.sound.DirectAudioDeviceProvider
  javax.sound.sampled.TargetDataLine=com.sun.media.sound.DirectAudioDeviceProvider

  to

  javax.sound.sampled.Clip=org.classpath.icedtea.pulseaudio.PulseAudioMixerProvider
  javax.sound.sampled.Port=org.classpath.icedtea.pulseaudio.PulseAudioMixerProvider
  javax.sound.sampled.SourceDataLine=org.classpath.icedtea.pulseaudio.PulseAudioMixerProvider
  javax.sound.sampled.TargetDataLine=org.classpath.icedtea.pulseaudio.PulseAudioMixerProvider

  
  To reproduce try to use josm (javaopenstreetmap)  and load some sound file... this will brake sound if you press pause and play again. After this fix, every thing working fine.
