Hmm, pulseaudio at nearly 100% CPU?

I don't think gmixer is that bad, but I wonder if pulseaudio also goes
to 100% if gmixer is not running.

I doubt the problem is specific to LXDE, but I suggest to first debug it
a little here and file bugs or move the discussion to the Fedora user's
list when we have sufficient data.
