-<title>PulseAudio support workarounds</title>
-<para>Initial support for PulseAudio is planned for the R14.1.0 release.</para>
-<para>For the time being you can try one of the following workarounds in case you have troubles with PA
-(especially muting/unmuting).
-<itemizedlist>
- <listitem>
- <para>You can mute/unmute from the KMix slider LED, this should work fine with PA.</para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>You can open KMix mixer window -> Settings -> Configure global shortcuts and remap the "toggle mute"
- keyboard shortcut to some other key combination. Do not use "XF86AudioMute" key, since this is normally
- used by KMilo and therefore may not work.</para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>You can create a script that calls "dcop kmix Mixer-1 toggleMasterMute", this will mute/unmute the PA
- master channel. You can add an input action tied to a keyboard shortcut to call this easy.</para>

-<sect3 id="release-notes-r14.0.9-hints-knotes-global-shortcuts">
-<title>Change in KNotes global shortcuts</title>
-<para>KNotes had four global keyboard shortcuts that were bounded to Alt + Shift + C/N/S/H. These shortcuts were
-overlapping with other key combinations used in some common programs, for example Midnight Commander.</para>
-<para>In R14.0.9 those KNotes global keyboard shortcuts have been left unassigned by default. If you wish to
-keep using the previous setup, you need to right click on KNotes system tray icon, select "Configure shortcuts"
-and then assign the following key combinations.

-<title>Restriction of supported distros/architectures</title>
-<para>Starting from this TDE release, apt sources for i386 architecture are no longer provided for Ubuntu 20.04 onwards.</para>
-<para>If you have a multi-arch system that includes i386 as well, you need to either remove i386 from the list of known architectures or
-remove that architecture from your apt sources.</para>
-<para>For example, if you have both i386 and amd64, you need to add [arch=amd64] in your apt sources.list file to make sure i386 is not used.</para>
