Hello,
I'm pleased to announce the availability of PulseAudio 8.0. A short
summary of the changes in this release:

 * Automatic routing more likely to change profile
 * OS X and NetBSD support improvements
 * Systemd journal logging for clients
 * New LFE balance programming interface
 * Module-dbus-protocol improvements
 * More flexible configuration file handling
 * pulsecore-8.0.so moved to a private directory
 * New script for measuring memory consumption
 * Various bug fixes and small improvements

Of note to packages is the availability of a more flexible
configuration for distribution-specific config, and the change in
installation path of the libpulsecore.
