Nah, Slackware adopted PA because bluez now insist on using PA for audio IO.

I have a feeling if PA was really as broken as it was once upon a time, Bluetooth audio would've been sacrificed in favor of a more stable and reliable system.

Additionally, I somewhat doubt BlueZ would've made PA such a hard dependency if they weren't reasonably sure that it's stable enough for primetime.
