To make testing of the upcoming version of Pulseaudio easier, there isnow a PPA with daily builds of git master available atppa:ubuntu-audio-dev/pulse-testing, orhttps://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-audio-dev/+archive/pulse-testing

So if you're running Ubuntu Natty or Oneiric, you can do this to installthe new modules:


sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev/pulse-testing
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

And to revert back to what's standard in Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get install ppa-purge
sudo ppa-purge ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev/pulse-testing

You should be able to switch back and forth like this if it weren't forbug https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/801133 .

I've done my best to keep integration (such as routing alsa:defaultthrough pulse etc) but remove all other Ubuntu specific patches. E g,flat volumes is not turned off in this version. Let me know if I missedsomething.

I'm running it here now and it seems to be working fine, although Ihaven't done more than just some random audio playback.

Oh and btw, depending on timing, the steps involved, and the varyingworkload on Launchpad's servers, expect it to lag up to a day or twobehind. At least every now and then.
