Alexander,
I agree we need to follow the first option mentioned in #198452, i.e.
the "PerfectSetup" route, but I hope you don't forget the required
asound.conf entries, but also new dependencies such as libsdl1.2debian-
pulseaudio and libao-pulse to be given priority over the -alsa packages.
As for the nonfree flash (which you can count on ~99% of the Hardy user
base installing that do not understand or care about the philosophical
concerns against closed-source solutions, and given the current state of
gnash and swfdec), we are effectively powerless to help compatibility
with PulseAudio until Adobe provide a fix themselves. Remember,
libflashsupport is actually Adobe's interface, and the PulseAudio
developers can only provide an implementation of it, not fix the
implementation itself.
If you decide on this route, I think we should look back towards the
inclusion of nspluginwrapper on 32bit architectures or else we will have
a lot of unhappy Firefox users. Since we are on such a tight schedule
and I would consider this a bug fix rather than feature, maybe it should
be considered for hardy-updates at the very least.
