Dear All,
Pulseaudio is taking as much as 35% of my cpu!!!
This is a recent installation.
I could not tolerate that, so I am looking for ways to
have all the audio/vdeo players work without PulseAudio.
So far, no success.
Are there F11 media packages built without PulseAudio?
Thanks for your help.
MM
Before taking a shotgun and killing pulseaudio, try to stop it from running and see if the CPU goes back to normal?
I saw on another list that killing pulseaudio and not removing it should help in some way?
Hope you can see if that is true if you don't mind of course.
Regards,
Antonio

Yes you are right. Problem is that pulseaudio is always started automatically.
I would like to stop that from hapening.
Also, I discovered that the media players themselves in FC11 are compiled
to run with pulseaudio. To wit:
yum install mplayer gnome-mplayer mplayer-gui gnome-mplayer-minimal gnome-mplayer-nautilus gnome-mplayer-common mplayer-doc
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit

So, how do I tell mplayer and other media players to NOT use pulseaudio?
mplayer -ao alsa ...
