Yes, I have begun to understand this over my conversations with my
brilliant team leaders.
Now what this entails is to be guided to run some prescribed tests on
my laptop, particularly for the package pulseaudio, and file the
outputs of those tests as a Bug Report.
So that the problems are addressed in the next edition of the current Release.
Moreover, the problems associated with pulseaudio would go way on this
package's next release, only if a Bug Report is filed.

Yes of course, I shall be glad to.
But first it would be nice if I could be advised to run some standard
tests prescribed and file a Bug Report.
At least, this way, I could play my role in the Scheme of Things so
far as FSF GNU-Linux is concerned.
Moreover, I had also written to Mr. David Wright personally to guide
me on his experiences with alsa, so that I could fall back on alsa for
the time being. If I am happy with the outcome, I could continue using
alsa instead of pulseaudio.
Best.
