That Linux sound system Developers have a deep and profound knowledge of
automatic transmissions?

I shouldn't poke too much fun at them. They are a dedicated crew. I hope
they
can figure out why USB audio of the VXI head set variety is so problematic.
I've experimented with actually speaking under wine and it works well enough
that I'm frustrated we can't cross the last chasm or two and get it

average users.

aren't focusing on this instead of 10 second boot times. Sound has
been a real pain for so long.

It's because OSS has just been released as open-source. It used to be only
semi-open, or closed.
