Hmm.. I wonder would it be possible to grab the gnome-media source from the Jaunty repos and recompile that?
The different version of gnome might cause problems though... must give it a shot at some point.

Has anyone had any success with removing PulseAudio and then installing OSSv4? I needed to install OSSv4 since PA does not support devices dsp, needed for some programs I use (in Fedora 10). I ask as I have a spare hard drive and would like to play with Ubuntu 9.10.
Thanks for reading.

My primary reason for removing Pulse was that it screwed the new version of Skype.
I found that the following worked.
sudo apt-get remove pulseaudio
sudo apt-get install esound
I installed ALSA and the GNOME ALSA GUI via Synaptic. The ALSA GUI is a rough way to control sound but at least everything now works.
I see Debian Unstable uses Gnome 2.28 aswell. I'm wondering if I fetched the source for Gnome Media, Gnome Applets and Gnome Settings Daemon from the Unstable repositories and compiled it under Karmic.
It's worth a shot and I'll let you all know how I get on.
i have made this in ubuntu 9.04 , now flash in firefox does not work.
see about this what i do also in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8308523 .
Flash needs a plugin to work with Pulseaudio.
I went and built the flash plugin from source to get it up and running.
or instead of make installCode:wget http://pulseaudio.vdbonline.net/flashplugin-nonfree-pulse_0.1~000.tar.gz tar xvfz flashplugin-nonfree-pulse_0.1~000.tar.gz cd flashplugin-nonfree-pulse-0.1~000 sudo apt-get install libpulse-dev make sudo make install
to build and install a .deb package.Code:sudo checkinstall
I now can play flash along with pretty much all other audio applications.
Why this wasn't already in the repositories baffles me... :/
Strange. I've had the exact same problem with flash in each of the 3 machines I've installed Karmic on, and using that flashplugin-nonfree-pulse package sorted it in each case.
