Hi BUGabundo
Nope, but when I installed it now I got another VLC option Pulseaudio! Tested it, it played, but with very poor quality, i.e very glitchy.

Also noticed that I had the EsounD plugin vlc-plugin-esd already installed by default! So that's why EsounD happened to work and with much better quality though not fully acceptable.

But as I wrote, PA shall mangage better than so meaning that the best codec (recommended) used when Standard output is set should (must) work with PA. It did in Intrepid, so there's something strange about the new PA version.

I don't know how this works but a native interface (I think it's called) is introduced in Jaunty's version of PA. Futhermore, how much built-in intelligence is there in the pulsesink? Somewhere some part seems not to be able to handle the stream sent by VLC. Is it a priority issue on the pipeline bus or ... Just wish I know.
