The "average" person is not doing multi-track sequencing, composition, and arrangements. To be clear, the audio stack he is referring to has nothing to do with general purpose sound playback, which is what pulse is for.
It is great to see that this area is getting some more attention. While Linux is used in a number of physical appliance like DAWs, desktop Linux has always been a bit of challenge. We are in much better shape today than even just a few years ago, and leaps and bounds ahead of when I first started to use Linux for "pro" audio (2002 or thereabouts). UbuntuStudio, KXStudio, Planet CCRMA are some other distributions that make installing and configuring this stack a little less challenging.
