Problem Description:

Multiple bugs has been identified and corrected in pulseaudio:

- alsa: allow configuration of fallback device strings in profiles
util: if NULL is passed to pa_path_get_filename() just hand it through
alsa: don't hit an assert when invalid module arguments are passed
- alsa: fix wording, we are speaking of card profiles, not output
profiles
- alsa: initialize buffer size before number of periods to improve
compat with some backends
- conf: remove obsolete module-idle-time directive from default config
file/man page
- core: make sure soft mute status stays in sync with hw mute status
endian: fix LE/BE order for 24 bit accessor functions
- log: print file name only when we have it
- man: document 24bit sample types in man page
- man: document log related daemon.conf options
- man: document that tsched doesn't use fragment settings
- mutex: when we fail to fill in mutex into static mutex ptr free
it again
- oss: don't deadlock when we try to resume an OSS device that lacks
a mixer
- simple-protocol: don't hit an assert when we call connection_unlink()
early
- idxset: add enumeration macro PA_IDXSET_FOREACH
- rescue-streams: when one stream move fails try to continue with
the remaining ones
- sample: correctly pass s24-32 formats
- sample-util: fix iteration loop when adjusting volume of s24 samples
- sample-util: properly allocate silence block for s24-32 formats
- sconv: fix a few minor conversion issues
- alsa: be a bit more verbose when a hwparam call fails
- rescue: make we don't end up in an endless loop when we can't move
a sink input
- core: introduce pa_{sink,source}_set_fixed_latency()
- core: cache requested latency only when we are running, not while
we are still constructing
- sample: fix build on BE archs
- alsa: properly convert return values of snd_strerror() to utf8
- alsa: remove debug codeAdditional

In addition to these fixes, several patches were recommended by
upstream and QAed with help from Mandriva volunteers. These patches
are also included.
