Comment 6 for bug 371897

The idea of filing this bug is to work our how to get Spotify/Wine to
work *with* pulseaudio and the standard Ubuntu audio stack.

Yes getting rid of Pulseaudio eliminates the problem, but it also
eliminates the ability to switch streams 'on the fly' between
different output devices.

How do we fix pulseaudio so that it works properly?
