Phonon is currently set up for vlc.

When I try to in the traditional way, I get:

[defiant /home/storm]# /etc/init.d/pulseaudio stop
[warn] PulseAudio configured for per-user sessions ... (warning).

And the process is still running:

[defiant /home/storm]# ps auxww | grep pulse
storm     4756  0.0  0.0 319820  6700 ?        S<l  Jul09   5:54
/usr/bin/pulseaudio --start --log-target=syslog

So it is probably coming off in the very near term.

Thanks Raffaele,
