So has anyone gotten their sound to work since it broke a few days ago?

I'm sorry. I can't answer this adequately. It's what came up the last time  
I saw this discussion.

Apparently, and I'm clearly not anywhere near enough of an audiophile to  
understand what they were going on about, pulseaudio does make some sound  
capabilities that matter a lot to musicians--which I think *did* include  
mixing--and other people who really care about extremely high fidelity  
sound. It was, for me, a jaw-dropping conversation that required me to  
acknowledge that as much as I think I care about high quality sound, I was  
completely out of my league.

I'd point you to the right list if I remembered which it was. And I think  
it'll be hard to find via Google because usually discussions about  
pulseaudio and its necessity devolve into flame wars.
