thank you slurp for this attempt, but unfortunately all this sink-source thing does it is preventing pulseaudio from starting at least on my rig with ubuntu 11.10

all other apps and aplay, play perfectly to any alsa device only eden has problem, all the time it says it cannot initialize audio.

Of course killing pulseaudio makes it work but it is not solution .

The strange thing is, usually in such situations pasuspender worked for other applications now even that cannot help. you have to kill pulseaudio or use pulseaudio output in xbmc which is kinda flaky :/
