Description-en: PulseAudio emulation for ALSA
The program provides an alternative partial implementation of the PulseAudio
API. It consists of a loader script and a number of shared libraries with the
same names as from original PulseAudio, so applications could dynamically load
them and think they are talking to PulseAudio. Internally, no separate sound
mixing daemon is used. Instead, apulse relies on ALSA's dmix, dsnoop, and plug
plugins to handle multiple sound sources and capture streams running at the
same time. dmix plugin muxes multiple playback streams; dsnoop plugin allow
multiple applications to capture from a single microphone; and plug plugin
transparently converts audio between various sample formats, sample rates and
channel numbers.
