Re: [alsa-devel] [PATCH 1/3] Define "sysdefault" PCM and control

2011/7/26 Takashi Iwai tiwai@suse.de:

When "default" PCM and control definitions are overwritten by others like PulseAudio setup, the original system-default defition is lost. This is a problem when PA is temporarily (or intentionally) disabled and user wants to use the default dmix.

how can the system upgrade Pulseaudio package without stopping PA server ?

is there any official way for user to temporiarily or intentionally disabled pulseaudio without uninstal pulseaudio or alsa-pulse plugin ?

override alsa-pulse plugin seem only affect those alsa application only, it seem that those application which use pulse api can still autospawn PA server
