Nothing really, it's fine for nearly everything and just tends to get on with the job.

The only bug that's affected me in the last couple of years was that the default volume on USB headsets was always set way too low. Pavucontrol helped sort it out

The only problem I've had recently is that I can't seem to split up different ports on the same card (optical home theatre/soundbar for music, desktop stereo for everything else), but that's not something I was able to do with ALSA anyway.

Something to do with opening the card in different profiles I think.
