[gentoo-user] can pulseaudio make trouble with non-audio parts?

[behrouz khosravi]

Hi. Yesterday and today I experienced some problems which were weird. First
of all the xdm service was crashing so I disabled it, and started using
startx. After that my whole KDE desktop was a pain. The application where
to slow, mplayer stopped working and ...
Anyway at last I notices that as soon as I start KDE, the sound stops
working, so uninstalled the skype and pulseaudio, and everything went back
to normal !
Can all this be pulseaudio's fault?
