Bug#605482: pulseaudio: Please prefer PulseAudio-enabled version of libSDL when PA is installed

Package: pulseaudio
Version: 0.9.21-3
Severity: normal

I'm not sure whether this should be reported to PulseAudio or libSDL,
so feel free to reassign this to libSDL if you want.

On a fresh Squeeze beta1 install, the default version of libSDL is
libsdl1.2debian-alsa and not libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio, which isn't
optimal for PulseAudio-enabled systems (which Squeeze is).

Moreover, even with the ALSA plugin, it breaks sound (and more) in some
applications (e.g. Teeworlds have serious problems when failing to play
sound, which is the case with the default libsdl installed).

So, please make libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio the default libsdl when
PulseAudio is installed.
