Comment:

 I was about to try to use ALSA and PulseAudio in parallel when I read that
 the PulseAudio support in SDL had nothing to do with PulseAudio itself but
 rather only with SDL. So, when I did "aptitude seach sdl" to check whether
 I had the newest version installed, it showed me

 {{{
 p   libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio  - Simple DirectMedia Layer (with X11 and
 PulseAudio options)
 }}}

 Installed it, changed the value of SDL_AUDIODRIVER from "alsa" to "pulse"
 in the et-sdl-sound file, worked!

 Of course, this doesn't touch the bug at all but it's still a nice work-
 around if you're trying to get sound in your games working (where latency
 probably affects you most).
