I agree with this, I have similar experiences with pulse. I also use the pulse equalizer, which is super easy to set up. I like it. I think it does things right, and they can optimize it more over time. It is better than having a fast audio subsystem that just can't do what I want. Pulse is a kitchen sink that at least covers its bases.
