+pulseaudio is a networked sound server for Unix-like operating systems
+and Microsoft Windows. It is intended to be an improved drop-in replacement
+for the Enlightened Sound Daemon (ESOUND).
+
+Pulseaudio will need a pulse group/user to run. You can add one with
+ # groupadd -g 216 pulse
+ # useradd -u 216 -g pulse -d /var/lib/pulse pulse
+or something similar. See http://slackbuilds.org/uid_gid.txt for details
+on the gid and uid assignments.
+
+Requires: speex
+Optional: jack-audio-connection-kit, avahi, lirc, libasyncns, GConf
