[gentoo-user] Questions about pulseaudio

[Dale]

I'm thinking about trying pulseaudio and seeing if it will fix a issue I 
have.  Some of my programs, k3b for one, plays a sound and it will about 
wake up the dead.  Some others, like KDE sound effects when I change 
desktops, can't even be heard unless the speakers are turned up a good 
bit.  Then some, like smplayer, affect the volume of other applications 
such as the PCM control which also changes a lot of other apps.

Does it sound like this will do what I need?  Control each app 
separately?  While I am at it:

01:00.1 Audio device: nVidia Corporation Device 0be2 (rev a1)
         Subsystem: nVidia Corporation Device 069a
         Kernel driver in use: HDA Intel

0:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA)
         Subsystem: Giga-byte Technology Device a002
         Kernel driver in use: HDA Intel

One of those is my sound card.  I never noticed I had two entries 
there.  Hmmmm.  Weird.  Anybody get this to work well with this 
hardware?  Easy to set up?  So difficult it was like pulling teeth?  The 
sound does work here, just need some fine tuning.

Thanks for the info.
