Yeah, I went through the repos and noted down the name of all of the packages I had installed with pulseaudio in the name. Then I did yum reinstall <all of those packages>
I figured it might need a reboot or something, so just to be on the safe side I turned the laptop off, battery out, left it for a bit and then tried from a cold boot. Nothing

Well, since it worked before, but not now, the thing is to figure out what happened between working, and not working...

I think I did an update, but aside from that I don't know...
When it stopped working, I didn't have my wifi working, so I still mainly used Windows.
Might there be log files or something somewhere?

Could I use JACK to send the audio that would go to pulse to ALSA instead? Don't really know what JACK is supposed to do, but that sounds like the sort of thing...

JACK is mostly intended for near-realtime audio processing tasks. Not really suitable for your problem. Just remember, in newer systems, you can't run a pulse output and alsa at the same time. There is a bug in the new ALSA libraries that disables the ability to have multiple outputs at the same time. You can have multiple pulse outputs, but not alsa or pluse+alsa. IE, if you are streaming audio with a player like VLC, using pulse, you cannot output an ALSA stream, such as a YouTube video in your browser.
