I burned a CD using k3b, but sound is a major problem here. I have one
box where sound works and I can't see the difference between that and
the other 2. In addition to the x86_64 boxes I have a x86 box with
Milestone 5, but I haven't got around to checking sound on that one.

Bug #525259 open for quite a while, since Milestone 1. It looks like a
pulseaudio problem.

Sid.
