<PRE>The idea with the sound-profile really sounds good, didn't knew about that.

&gt;<i> Hi,
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> 'Twas brillig, and Sascha Schneider at 21/12/10 21:06 did gyre and gimble:
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Wiki updated <A HREF="http://www.mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=soundstudio">http://www.mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=soundstudio</A>
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Sorry I've been a little quiet of late. Email backlog + work commitments
</I>&gt;<i> + $EXCUSE.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> I've added a comment to the wiki page about the suggestion of editing
</I>&gt;<i> /etc/sysconfig/pulseaudio. This file is more or less outdated now. I
</I>&gt;<i> should probably tidy things up and remove it.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Nowadays we use &quot;Sound Profiles&quot; which should be an ideal scenario to
</I>&gt;<i> allow you to package up various tweaks and tricks with symlinks and get
</I>&gt;<i> them activated automatically when the user switches to a different sound
</I>&gt;<i> profile.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> The sound profiles are based on the alternatives system.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> See: update-alternatives --display soundprofile
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Ultimately you can read the current profile.conf here:
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> CONFIG=/etc/sound/profiles/current/profile.conf
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> But to create a new profile, just the pulseaudio package. It's basically
</I>&gt;<i> just a matter of creating a folder /etc/sound/profiles/myprofile
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> When you register it with the alternatives system you give it a
</I>&gt;<i> priority. I would suggest that if the package containing the soundstudio
</I>&gt;<i> profile is not installed by default then it can have a higher priority
</I>&gt;<i> than the pulseaudio one, and thus automatically activate when installed.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Things like udev rules and such like could be installed by the package
</I>&gt;<i> but only activated when the profile is actually active (e.g. via
</I>&gt;<i> symlinks) - you may want to put dummy udev rules in place for the other
</I>&gt;<i> profiles too to make the symlinks always resolve.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Also disabling libcanberra (by exporting CANBERRA_DRIVER=null) would
</I>&gt;<i> also be sensible - event sounds and such like are obviously highly
</I>&gt;<i> pointless/evil when doing pro-audio work! Currently the driver is
</I>&gt;<i> changed via this mechanism for a pure alsa profile (CANBERRA_DRIVER=alsa).
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> HTHs
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Col
