Joe Marcus Clarke c5915eac72 Add polypaudio, a sound server for UNIX that is designed to be a drop-in
replacement for ESOUND with a few more bells and whistles:

*  Extensible plugin architecture (by loading dynamic loadable modules
   with dlopen())
* Support for more than one sink/source
* Better low latency behaviour
* Embedabble into other software (the core is available as C library)
* Completely asynchronous C API
* Simple command line interface for reconfiguring the daemon while running
* Flexible, implicit sample type conversion and resampling
* "Zero-Copy" architecture
* Module autoloading
* Very accurate latency measurement for playback and recordin.
* May be used to combine multiple sound cards to one (with sample rate
  adjustment)
* Client side latency interpolation

Polypaudio is a sound server for UNIX. It is intended to be an improved
drop-in replacement for the Enlightenment Sounds Daemon (ESOUND). In
addition to the features ESDOUND provides, polypaudio has:
* Extensible plugin architecture (by loading dynamic modules with dlopen())
* Support for more than one sink/source
* Better low latency behavior
* Embedable into other software (the core is available as C library)
* Completely asynchronous C API
* Simple command line interface for reconfiguring the daemon while running
* Flexible, implicit sample type conversion and resampling
* "Zero-Copy" architecture
* Module autoloading
* Very accurate latency measurement for playback and recording
* May be used to combine multiple sound cards to one (with sample rate
adjustment)
* Client side latency interpolation
