Only what I've heard people talking about at lunch. Nothing that would help 
any more than my complaining about Linux does. ;-)

I think of all the areas, "audio" and "usability" are recognized as being 
low on the list for Linux. And by "usability", I mean things like "give the 
focus to the window I just opened, instead of some random window on some 
other workspace" and "when I plug in a USB audio device, yeah, I probably 
want to use that one without launching an xterm to select it. Oh, and by the 
way, the volume control slider? Probably a good idea to set the volume of 
the audio device to the setting of the volume control slider without me 
having to go and manually slide it up and down a bit to get it to apply to 
the newly selected audio device."   Just dumb crap like that that isn't 
worth fixing if nobody is paying you to do so.
