This week at LWN: LPC: Linux audio: it's a mess
Audio is a fitting topic for the first day of the Linux Plumbers Conference. Users want sound to Just Work, and there's lots of working code in individual projects. But so far, it seems like nobody has everything quite plumbed together in an annoyance-free way. Lennart Poettering, a lead developer of PulseAudio and Red Hat employee, moderated the miniconference and started with a summary of the state of Linux audio: "it's a mess." The audio miniconference came up with two steps toward cleaning up the mess, though. First, come up with a coherent story for application developers on what sound API to use, and how. Second, clean up the often-confusing array of user-visible audio level controls.
