I appreciate the philosophy of CrunchBang, but for my recently-built Linux desktop PC I tried it out. Spent two days trying to get sound to work correctly. Really brought me back to my struggles with Linux 10+ years ago. Gave up and went with a mainstream distro where sound Just Worked.
Sound is such an annoying thing to troubleshoot on linux. I'm pretty happy with the way Pulseaudio handles on the mainstream distros, but sometimes I do more intensive audio work where I need to use Jack and the configuration can get confusing.
We can send pulse through jack now and everything works out pretty well, but setting this up seems like a slightly different process on every distro.
