I read in LP #128447 that
 * installing libsdl1.2debian-all instead of libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio,
 * and setting SDL_AUDIODRIVER=pulse in the environment
would have about the same results as installing libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio.

I tried it and it works fine for me.

So maybe instead of requesting for libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio to be the default in Ubuntu, while libsdl1.2debian-alsa to remain the default in [K|X]ubuntu, maybe all derivatives could use libsdl1.2debian-all instead, and Ubuntu specifically to have SDL_AUDIODRIVER=pulse set in the environment? (libsdl1.2debian-all is in main)
