>From a distro perspective, it's a regression that happens to be bundled with a feature. Though from a distro perspective working around this in pulseaudio and making sure even old releases get the fix might be okay. I thought that "no regressions" meant that the first sentence and not the second sentence of the previous paragraph apply from a kernel perspective. No? So I would be happiest if there is some way to teach the kernel about this quirk until everyone already has had a fixed pulseaudio for a year or two.
