Possibly.  It was an FC6.386 that got a brute force upgrade to
F9.x86_64.  I'm sure that pulse was not working correctly at that time.
 After a whole bunch of googling, I thought I had pulse properly
configured and a whole bunch of multi-media apps started working both
better and together.  But no guarantees that I got it right.  The
machine then got an upgrade to F11 by using preupgrade twice in
succession:  The first time to F10, then immediately again to F11.
