[pulseaudio-discuss] Has anyone ever gotten Orca and Pulse Audio to work together well?

Done!  The new pulse.c works much better.  Pulseaudio still introduces
a barely perceptible delay, but maybe we can get rid of that with some
tuning.

Also, I'd posted a question about why short sounds were not being
played immediately when queued through the pulse-simple API.  I was
able to get around this problem by setting the the tlength buffer
attribute to 100, though I haven't tuned that value yet.
