- AsyncAwait 7y agoIf you want realtime, there's JACK. PA is intended to replace/supplement ALSA, it has features like network transparency, per app volume control, EQ, virtual outputs etc. Not every SW has to have every feature, but PA has useful features ALSA doesn't.
- snvzz 7y agoPA can't supplement ALSA, because PA can't cover all cases. It is not suitable for realtime. It's an exercise on self-delusion to pretend PA can replace ALSA as long as it has this blatant issue.
