Re: pulseaudio in Wheezy



Hi.  debian's installer with speakup and espeakup is still text only, so the pulseaudio
problem doesn't happen.  Pulseaudio only becomes a problem when you log into gnome.
If the pulseaudio developer took accessibility issues caused by his app seriously, then distros wouldn't have to find
work arounds.
