Great example except ... I don't have pulseaudio installed on my system. Not even out of any specific effort to avoid it.
It may be standard on some systems, but not, apparently on debian (it's an "optional" package).
And that's part of the point: stuff that needn't be present shouldn't be. systemd's a whole 'nother ball of wax in that regard.
And yes, I'll even allow that Linux audio has been frustrating over the years. But in my case, problems going away had nothing to do with Lennart's work.
