To disable pulseaudio, simply run the command below as root. yum remove alsa-plugins-pulseaudio If you are using KDE this will also remove kde-settings-pulseaudio Don't try removing all the pulseaudio rpm's, as one at least wants to remove a bunch of deps, and can screw up the sounds completely. Removing the alsa-plugins-pulseaudio package will mean that your audio apps should be accessing alsa directly, as they were on Fedora versions (pre F8), before pulseaudio entered the equation.
