Not clear the CD doesn't boot for most users and not easy to change because it would mean to have access to the hardware of every configuration concerned

dunno where you are getting your number but it's most likely a very wrong estimation, sound works correctly on most configurations

Those are things which have been coded by upstream and not the ubuntu team, packaging them didn't take a lot of ressources avoid from bug fixing, you are speaking to the wrong persons there. And people who have worked on that most likely did it because that's what they want to do and would not have worked on other bugs anyway

You seem to not undersand how opensource is working, ubuntu is mostly doing packaging work and bug fixing, shipping code written by other people is not what prevent fixing all those bugs, the issue is just the small number of people doing the work and the huge workload there.

Now the code is available and you can make a difference and start contributing and fixing issues too
