 **CAUTION! CAUTION! CAUTION!**
 Some of these instructions will involve editing files, which I must strongly recommend that you back up before editing, in case you make a mistake.
 
+##Optional Pulseaudio Configuration
+
+Okay, this already sounds scary, but don't worry, it's really not, and you may like things the way they are by default, so I'll briefly describe my test box's setup.
+It's got two sound cards, one built-in audio, and a usb headset. 
+Speech for the regular text console goes through the built-in sound card, and everything else goes through the usb headset, including the output of the Orca screen reader, and every other sound too, music, games and even things sent through speech-dispatcher that are not screen reader related.
+This is not the default behavior of Slint, as I said before, you may have reason to do something differently, or leaving things as they are so you could skip this step, but I've found this handy because it seems to speed up game play a bit, and all the speech, game sounds etc, come from one place.
+This modification is really easy to do, only one line in one file need be changed.
+This means you'll be using a text editor, whichever one you like and your magical superuser powers.
+So unless you're skipping this step, let's begin.
+
+So in your console, or even your gui terminal if you like that, we'll be in the home directory.
+Mine would be /home/testo, which of course I'll refer to later in the guide, yours of course will be different.
+We'll go through some of these steps again later, so it will be pretty familiar by the time we're done.
+As we must be the superuser here, we're going to open a file in the /etc/speech-dispatcher directory called speechd.conf, which we're going to quickly back up before we edit.
+We'll use the cp command to copy the speechd.conf file to another file with a different name, so in case something goes wrong, you'll be able to restore the original.
+So now type
+    $ sudo cp /etc/speech-dispatcher/speechd.conf /etc/speech-dispatcher/speechd.conf.backup
+followed by the Enter key.
+You'll likely be asked for your password, which is the root user password.
+Go ahead and type that followed by the Enter key, and you'll be returned to your prompt.
+Now we can edit the file safely.
+next we open the text editor of choice, for my test box it's Nano so the command would look like this:
+    $sudo nano /etc/speech-dispatcher/speechd.conf
+followed by the Enter key.
+You may have a different editor so do the next step however your editor works.
+You want to search for the line that says:
+    AudioOutputMethod "libao"
+All you need to do here is to replace what's between the quotes, "libao" with the word "pulse"
+and then save the file.
+If you have a graphical terminal running when you do this, you'll lose speech when you do thefollowing command, but it will come back. If you've done this in a console, and don't have a graphical user interface running yet, your speech will be fine.
+What we need to do is to kill any currently running instances of speech-dispatcher so that when it gets called again, most likely by Orca, it will direct speech output through Pulseaudio.
+so here, we type the following command.
+    $ sudo killall speech-dispatcher
+followed by the Enter key.
+If you get the responce:
+    No process found.
+That's okay. 
+In the regular text console your speech would only stop if you're using a speech method that depends upon speech-dispatcher, such as speechd-up for example.
+If you're using espeakup, you're using alsa, which will not be affected by this change.
+The speech in your graphical terminal will stop upon pressing the Enter key. Simply press the Enter key in your graphical terminal and speech will restart, as Orca is now sending speech through Pulseaudio in the second sound device.
+Now all your game output as well as any speech in the graphical user interface will all come from the same place.
+So now on to the next step... Way to go you command line ninjas!

 When it's finally done, and you're returned to the command prompt, you'll now be multi-lib capable, so next it's time to go get WINE and anything else we need.
 Having made sure the system is fully upgraded before beginning to do anything in this guide, we're now ready to procede to the next step, which is to blacklist the packages that make the system multi-lib, so future system upgrades will not over-write them and undo all your hard work.
 As we're still logged in as the super user, the next thing we're going to do is to go to a directory outside the home directory of your normal user, with the following command.

 Once the news plays, audiogame-manager then checks to see what programs it needs and will tell you what's missing that you'll need to install.
 I've been running a test box while doing this article, and discovered that after WINE installed, audiogame-manager reported two packages that were not installed.
 They happened to be cabextract and dos2unix and they are rereally easy to install.
