PulseAudio: “Compiz for Sound” on openSUSE

We’re jumping on to the PulseAudio bandwagon, same as Fedora(Interview with Lennart Poettering). To prepare the groundwork for that move, Rodrigo and I worked on porting all the required packages and getting it working on openSUSE.
Here is the result 
What you are seeing in the shot are all the PulseAudio apps, information shows connection to pulse server, and volume control app shows banshee as client, volume controls for other application that is using sound will show up below banshee, so each can be controlled individually.
Check out GNOME Ideas for 11 wiki page for instructions on how to get PulseAudio on openSUSE.
I guess they call it “Compiz for sound” because it has too many configuration options

Does PulseAudio integrates in KDE as well as it does on Gnome? Can we expect a really working version for 10.3, or it will be only with openSUSE 11.

1-click posted on the wiki is “really working” pulseaudio
It should work on kde as well as gnome.

When I click on the “one-click” install button I get tons of depency errors. Any suggestions on how to overcome these?

You must have main repository enabled, pulseaudio is on by default on openSUSE 11 alpha2

I should have mentioned that before, but I’m running 10.3 64-bit, does that matter? To which Main repository do you refer, I have 4 differnt ones available. I have th OSS and NON-OSS enabled and the “Main Update Repository” as well.
