        <pre>Hey,

thanks for offering your expertise and pointing out that this isn't coming from
pulseaudio itself but from the a52 stuff. After trying to uninstall/reinstall
libav*, libasound2-plugins and pulseaudio (so that i'm sure everything is from
the packages, but i was quite sure before!) it still didn't work. I then tried
to build alsa-plugins from hand and put the a52 .so where it belongs - to no
effect.

Then after understanding that the a52 encoding is actually handeled by libav*,
i dug into that and discovered that i actually have libav* from
debian-multimedia.org ... which was the cause! I installed the "correct"
libavcodec53 version from debian itself, and not DMO - an *bang* it worked!

You've helped me so much on this! Thank you!</pre>
