Do you have any update?
Schedual is tight.

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2012-07-10 08:26:26 UTC
This request was not resolved in time for the current release.
Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if still desired, for consideration in
the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 3 RHEL Program Management 2012-07-11 01:57:22 UTC
This request was erroneously removed from consideration in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4, which is currently under development.  This request will be evaluated for inclusion in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4.

Comment 4 Lennart Poettering 2012-07-17 14:47:49 UTC
PulseAudio only controls digital audio. Direct, analog hardware loopback is not exposed in PulseAudio.

Comment 5 RHEL Program Management 2012-09-07 05:33:19 UTC
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated
in the current release, Red Hat is unable to address this
request at this time.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate, in the next release of
Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
