I just installed apulse (on a debian testing for now). Compiled from
source. It worked fine with FF. However mpv and mplayer both
misbehaved. Examining ldd, it showed that mpv, at least, was using
/usr/local/lib/libpulse-simple.so.0 for some reason. Obviously I did
*not* start mpv with apulse. So I had to remove apulse for now.

I assume the same will happen on devuan, so be warned. Or maybe that was
an artefact of the way I installed the libraries on /usr/local, but I
doubt it. I guess the package needs a tweak to fix such problems. Or
maybe it happens because debian is trying to default to pulseadio?
