I originally wrote a reply to this that went through and answered the
individual points. However, on reflection and re-reading of my replies I
felt it was better to just reply generically as I don't want to nit-pick
and do a tit-for-tat type reply here as you're points are all valid and
well reasoned.

Along with the Triage team who do an sterling job, I am the primary
person dealing with fallout from audio issues. I obviously take pride in
the work I do and I in no way want want to jeopardise the reputations of
either Mageia or PulseAudio and as such I will use the revert option
without hesitation for rc if I or anyone else genuinely feels that the
newer version reflects badly on Mageia.

I fully accept the timing sucks here, but considering the lifetime of
mga2 I still feel this is the right direction.
