Glen - it certainly looks possible to do, it's just how we manage those users on 'stock' distributions from not messing up their PulseAudio - I don't think we want a raft of 'my sound's stopped working' reports!

But I understand that those that use AVLinux, UbuntuStudio or some other multimedia distribution would benefit from this (myself included).

If there's a way to detect if PulseAudio is running, then we can just prevent the switching on of JACK support in Openshot by the user. Hopefully a suitable warning would discourage the average user from trying to messa round with their sound settings.
