Hi Stephen

Thank you! Confirmed working now, one daemon less on my machine :) Fyi,
all is working and the terminal gave me following output, probably just
a warning as the sound does work now:

LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/pulseaudio/libpulsedsp.so
/usr/games/ut99
ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/pulseaudio/libpulsedsp.so'
from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32):
ignored.
Unreal engine initialized
