Hi Tanu,

This is really all water over the dam now, but just to justify that there was
some method to my madness, I felt David's Comment #9 was a little too general,
somehow implying that LO _never_ tries to use PA.
So my point in Comment 10 was to reiterate what was implied in the original
"bug" submission that _same_ version LO, on a 32-bit system with PA 5.0 shows
inconsistencies with Ubuntu "perfect" situation.
BTW, why is Ubuntu's PA sticking with 1.4 and not upgrading to 5.0 (released
way back in March)?

One point, maybe lost in the translation, is that on my BLFS 32-bit system
where practically everything else (including PA) is compiled from sources,
the LO is a "canned" binary so that it "exactly matches" (in version and
spirit (?)) the one on Ubuntu in an attempt to compare apples with apples.

Be that as it may, I see two courses of action now (with your permission):

1. Compiling LA (which is normally a matter of course for me ~ 80 min.), any
version you suggests (they are now at 4.3.2) and/or recompiling PA.
In that, any suggestions as to configure options will be highly appreciated
(like which GStreamer, 0.10.x or 1.x, etc.).
Test again on the BLFS _32-bit_ system.  As an aside, my system (still) works
pretty smoothly on the current 3.16.3 kernel.

2. If it annoys you so much, drop the whole friggin' thing which, come to think
of it, doesn't amount to a hill of beans in this crazy, cold and cruel world of
today (and of mine).

Thank you for your comments and in general,
-- Alex
