Description
Make pulseaudio support optional by disabling it, creating a new "pulseaudio" variant which turns on PA and adds the correct dependency and turning that on by default.

What makes you want to disable pulseaudio support?

To be honest a personal dislike for PulseAudio. I don't want to include it on my system for no good reason.
gstreamer has support for CoreAudio, so I strongly feel the need to be able to disable PulseAudio support.

Mihai,
Rather than making a default variant that everyone but you would use, I would prefer to switch the backend to something other than pulse; however, I would advise against CoreAudio. Despite being native, CoreAudio has been a real pain in the neck when another project lacked dedicated OS X coders to keep up with changes in CoreAudio's syntax. Assuming libao is available, would you find it to be an acceptable solution?

Wait.. even with PulseAudio support turned on, the default backend will likely stay CoreAudio (osxaudio) as it is now unless it detects a running PulseAudio instance and can be changed via gstreamer preferences (hum, we don't have that packaged it seems.)
gstreamer doesn't even seem to support libao.
