    Summary: PulseAudio is a networked sound server
    Description: 
    PulseAudio is a networked sound server, similar in theory to the Enlightened
    Sound Daemon (EsounD). PulseAudio is however much more advanced and has
    numerous features.
    
    A sound server can serve many functions:
    
    * Software mixing of multiple audio streams, bypassing any restrictions the
    hardware has.
    
    * Network transparency, allowing an application to play back or record audio
    on a different machine than the one it is running on.
    
    * Sound API abstraction, alleviating the need for multiple backends in
    applications to handle the wide diversity of sound systems out there.
    
    * Generic hardware abstraction, giving the possibility of doing things like
    individual volumes per application.
    
    Features:
    
    * Library licensed under LGPL and server daemon under GPL
    * Extensible plugin architecture (by loading dynamic loadable modules with dlopen())
    * Support for static linking of modules, allowing a single binary for all your needs
    * Module autoloading
    * Support for more than one sink/source
    * Good low latency behaviour
    * Very accurate latency measurement for playback and recording.
    * Client side latency interpolation
    * Embedabble into other software (the core is available as C library)
    * Completely asynchronous C API, complemented by two synchronous variants for
      simple use in synchronous applications
    * Simple command line interface for reconfiguring the daemon while running
    * Flexible, implicit sample type conversion and resampling
    * "Zero-Copy" architecture
    * May be used to combine multiple sound cards to one (with sample rate adjustment)
    * Ability to fully synchronize multiple playback streams
    
    This virtual package contains pulseaudio daemon and utilities.
