1) It's probably a good solution for non-multiopen sound cards.
2) It's probably a good abstarct layer between apps and sound hardware.
3) KDE2 wants it to be running (or it have problems with sound output.). 
maybe sometime I'll migrate to GNOME2 and problem will disappear, but 
currently I'm using KDE.
