Package: libao2
Version: 0.8.8-3
Severity: grave
Justification: default configuration renders package unusable on non-KDE systems

Hi,

libao2 should default to using ALSA always in Debian. Presently
it uses ARTS by default which is problematic on non-KDE systems:

Please fix the default configuration. Thanks!
