It seems silly to me to expect Skype and Adobe to change their stuff for PulseAudio, rather than PulseAudio providing a means to properly work with things that aren't PA-aware. Remember that when ALSA came along intending to replace OSS, ALSA included an OSS compatibility layer. And other audio daemons I've used, such as arts, include wrapper programs so that programs that aren't arts-aware (or whatever-aware) work properly.

PuleAudio Posted Apr 26, 2008 11:53 UTC (Sat) by jamesh (subscriber, #1159) [Link] PulseAudio does provide compatibility support for previous sound APIs, including esound, alsa and oss. There are notes about a lot of this at http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/PerfectSetup. Lennart has done a lot of work towards making PulseAudio work with everything, but there is a limit to what he can do for proprietary apps. It seems that Skype are the only people in a position to make Skype work with PA.
