14 The problems with slack and zoom is that I can't emerge the latter,
15 due to the ebuild requiring borking qt stuff, so I can't even test it.
16 As for slack, the window is unresponsive, so no way to check sound.
17 Meanwhile, I managed to have discord working with pulseaudio. The
18 setup of pulseaudio is still sketchy, but it is encouraging. I don't
19 know about apulse. I suppose its purpose is to use pure ALSA while
20 tricking apps into believing they are interacting with pulseaudio?
