You could try *not having pulseaudio installed. I finally gave up on pulseaudio and run as close to a strict alsa setup as I can<br>
and don't have many of the issues that I once had. My installed "audio" rpms are:<br>
<br>
pulseaudio-libs-glib2-5.0-3.fc21.x86_64<br>
pulseaudio-libs-5.0-3.fc21.x86_64<br>
pulseaudio-libs-devel-5.0-3.fc21.x86_64<br>
<br>
python-alsa-1.0.26-3.fc20.x86_64<br>
alsa-utils-1.0.27.2-5.fc21.x86_64<br>
alsa-lib-devel-1.0.27.2-2.fc21.x86_64<br>
alsa-oss-1.0.17-9.fc20.x86_64<br>
alsa-oss-libs-1.0.17-9.fc20.x86_64<br>
alsamixergui-0.9.0-0.16.rc2.fc20.x86_64<br>
alsa-lib-1.0.27.2-2.fc21.x86_64<br>
alsa-firmware-1.0.27-2.fc20.noarch<br>
alsa-tools-firmware-1.0.27-3.fc21.x86_64<br>
alsa-lib-debuginfo-1.0.27.2-2.fc21.x86_64<br>
alsa-tools-1.0.27-3.fc21.x86_64<br>
<br>
And I've only got the pulseaudio-libs stuff installed because of dependencies from other packages.<br>
