No bluetooth for PulseAudio nonbelievers

Hi fedorians,

Having spent more than a day trying to get Skype working smoothly with PA,
and failing (cranky sound, or 100% CPU usage). Now I know Skype is closed
crap that is using deprecated apis and it along with flash should be
sentenced to software hell, but at the end of the day I need to use it at
work. So, what I ended up doing was to "yum remove pulseaudio". Alsa
software dmixing usually works fine for me. However, yum needed to remove
gnome-bluetooth as it depends on PA! And it refuses to bring it back without
PA!! duh! I want my bluetooth back, and I don't want PA. Nothing against PA,
but it doesn't benefit me in anyway and only causes problems. Is this a case
of rpm dependency abuse ?
Regards
