I noticed some of us are having issues with PulseAudio. I installed Alpha 6 from the Desktop ISO then upgraded to the latest packages from the command-line. My sound works fine but not PulseAudio so no sound in Flash. I wasn't convinced the problem was configuration so I checked what packages I had installed. The first thing I discovered was the only PulseAudio package installed was the client library. That can't be right, I'm certain we need additional packages, at least the PulseAudio server and probably a few more. I found quite a few PulseAudio packages in the repository. Maybe the Alpha ISO images didn't include these packages by default. Anyone know what packages are required in Kubuntu 9.04 to at least start testing if it works. I have a general idea but I'd rather not guess.
