Bug#829642: marked as done (pulseaudio 9 breaks SPDIF/iec958 and Intel HDMI audio on ASUS B85-Pro motherboard)

[Adam Warner]

(There is a newly recommended package for udev to discover available
sinks in Pulseaudio 9 and I didn't have the package installed.)

Mike Hommey asks "Should it only be recommended, though?"

The answer is yes. While I can only guess at the reasons pulseaudio has
been decoupled from a hard dependency upon udev the change is clearly
intentional (and correctly implemented).

Recommended packages are installed by default. Only an expert user will
disable the automatic installation of recommended packages. Expert
users should know what they're doing and we both made a mistake.
