[a161de9] | 33 | <application>PulseAudio</application> is a sound system for POSIX OSes,
|

| 34 | meaning that it is a proxy for sound applications. It allows you to do
|
---|
[0956cf1] | 35 | advanced operations on your sound data as it passes between your
|
---|
| 36 | application and your hardware. Things like transferring the audio to a
|

| 37 | different machine, changing the sample format or channel count and mixing
|
---|
| 38 | several sounds into one are easily achieved using a sound server.
