I'm running my system without pulseaudio. In gutsy, zsnes worked fine. In hardy, now sound (using the alsa backend). If I use the sdl backend as a workaround as mentioned above I get sound (yeah!) but zsnes seems to freeze or not restore the graphic mode correctly in this case, so it is unusable (I have to ctrl-alt-backspace to kill the x server)
