Hi all,

This morning's upload of PulseAudio to jaunty makes two notable changes for the 
desktop user:

Firstly, autospawn is now enabled, which means that if the daemon is not 
running when the first client attempts to connect, it will be executed 
automatically. This step tests a workaround for the daemon ABENDing while we 
further debug the root cause. The impact of this change is that PulseAudio 
users who have desktop environments other than GNOME running may experience 
some nondeterministic behaviour for the default capture and playback devices 
when the daemon initially autospawns. Please report any such issues using the 
Launchpad bug tracker.

Secondly, we have globally disabled glitch-free to work around a number of 
driver bugs that do not seem addressable within the jaunty development span. 
This change reverts PulseAudio behaviour to rely on the driver's 
interrupt-based buffering semantics, which appear to be more stable for a 
significant number of jaunty testers. If you would like to reenable 
glitch-free, edit /etc/pulse/default.pa and change:

load-module module-hal-detect tsched=0
to:
load-module module-hal-detect

Again, please report regressions from the existing jaunty PulseAudio package 
using the Launchpad bug tracker.

Thanks,
Dan
