I said this before (but maybe not under this thread, so sorry):
Because pulseaudio is not worth it.

Pulseaudio has been a failure in all 3 of my computers. And I don't
know (in person) anyone who has a working pulseaudio setup. All
positive things I heard about pulseaudio were from a handful of people
I discussed here and on irc. Majority of people that I communicated
does not want pulseaudio.

And yes, I don't know how I allowed it to get into my wife's computer.
I blame myself for that.

Pulseaudio proposes nice features. But proposing is one thing,
implementing is another. It is pre-alpha quality for now, and
shouldn't be allowed for public consumption. Maybe in 2-3 years (with
this pace), we shall make it optional for curious testers.
