Bug#702884: pulseaudio installed by mistake by something that pulled gstreamer, made all my sistem silent

Package: pulseaudio
Version: 2.0-6
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software

Dear Maintainer,
after installing kde-telepathy, amarok went silent.

so kde-telepathy uses gstreamer, and it installed pulseaudio as a dependence
then no audio could be heard (I suppose mplayer would still work but I did not
try).

To solve the problem I installed gstreamer0.10-alsa and removed pulseaudio.

I will spare you my rants, bye.
