After an emerge -uDN world blobby ist starting without having sound:

Reason:
Comment 1 Stephan Litterst 2012-11-11 10:10:33 UTC
ok, I found via google that blobby needs pulseaudio. So I emerged pulseaudio and blobby runs with sound again. Probably pulseaudio was unmerged during an "emerge --depclean". Could you please check this?

strange - I started an emerge --depclean and nothwing was unmerged.
So I changed the status to RESOLVED and WORKSFORME.
