[Novalug] hardy heron ate my soundcard

[Don E. Groves, Jr.]

Ubunbu 7.10 uses PulseAudio by default also.
  { In fact it takes almost major surgey to remove PulseAudio. }
The main problem I had with PulseAudio under 7.10 is/was it's limited
or missing 16-bit sound stream support.
 { There are/where work arounds, but ... }

 {-: esd has had this support from the early releases. :-}
