I was wondering if there was an easy way of replacing pulseaudio with alsa. Pulseaudio is the biggest problem I am currently having with Ubuntu and I really want these problems to end.

    Can you rephrase your question and tell us more detail what your problems are? replacing pulse audio with alsa doesn't really make any sense. – Jorge Castro Oct 15 '10 at 00:17

If what you'd like to do is disable PulseAudio, the following steps should do it:

sudo sh -c "echo autospawn = no|tee -a /etc/pulse/client.conf"
touch ~/.pulse_a11y_nostart
sudo chmod 600 /usr/bin/pulse-session
killall pulseaudio

Note that you don't have to remove any PulseAudio-related packages to disable it.

If you'd like to temporarily disable PulseAudio, see the answer to the relevant question.
