Given that this is not the case with pulseaudio in Debian squeeze, this
bug has probably been fixed.

Status in “cultivation” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released

Bug description:
The cultivation package provided with Ubuntu Intrepid calls `/usr/games/cultivation` directly, but this will disable the sound in a default Ubuntu installation. A solution is to call `aoss /usr/games/cultivation` instead. From here there are two options:

1) Changing /usr/share/applications/cultivation.desktop, line 8 to "Exec=aoss /usr/games/cultivation".
2) Create a wrapper for the binary that calls aoss. The wrapper would be something like:

#!/usr/bin/env bash
aoss /usr/share/games/cultivation/cultivation

Where "/usr/share/games/cultivation/cultivation" is the actual binary. (Don't know what the directory and naming conventions are for this kind of thing.)

This is a great game. :-D
