[gentoo-user] problem trying to play sound when pulse audio is enabled

Hi.  I have not used pulseaudio at all, but with gnome 3.8 I guess it
must be there, but when I try to play a sound using either mplayer from
the console which works fine withalsa, or even aplay, I get no sound
unless I change the /etc/pulse/client.conf to spawn=no .  Anyway to fix
this?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
