Trying to Upgrade PulseAudio

I first tried to install from this respository, but it wouldn’t install.  There was an error message about maybe one of the packages being held, and it could resolve everything.

So, I found another blog post that had a better repository to install from.  So, I followed these directions:

How to Install the Latest PulseAudio (0.9.15) in Ubuntu Jaunty

Here is a quick summary:

Installed repository:

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/themuso/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main

Installed key:

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys B88A1AA8

Updated all of the packages

Now:

pulseaudio –version

pulseaudio 0.9.15

So, I rebooted, and I will let you know if things start working better!
