Never mind, found the problem after googling a lot: |

PA does not work without ConsoleKit, yet the ebuild did not pull CK as a |
| 15 |
dep :-/ Will file a bug about it. |

As for the results, it's pretty much as I expected: latency cannot |
| 18 |
compete with OSS4's vmix. But it isn't worse than stand-alone ALSA+dmix |
| 19 |
though, which is surprising. |

Another problem: Amarok 2 stopped working. That is, it loads OK, but |
| 22 |
there's no sound at all when playing something with the Xine backend. |
| 23 |
The Gstreamer backend works, but (as always) sound quality sucks (pops |
| 24 |
and crackles). Any way to get Phonon-Xine to work with PA? I tried to |
| 25 |
set "audio.driver:alsa" in ~/.xine/config, but to no avail; still no sound. |
