I think alsa is the way to go on Linux, I only ever had problems with
pulseaudio. Simon Long put it in because (apparently) it works together
with the bluetooth gui settings :rolleyes: but I think it broke all
sorts of other things. To get my mpd player setup to work I do 'sudo
apt-get purge pulse*' (and, somewhat unrelated, disable bluetooth in
config.txt with 'dtoverlay=pi3-disable-bt').
