Feature Request in multimedia/mpv:

Please enable Pulseaudio option in the port of "multimedia/mpv" by default, so
that the Pulseaudio plugin is included in the official binary.

Background:
FreeBSD uses OSS. I works well in physical machines, but when use in virtual
machines (VirtualBox), the audio hangs every time when the audio track is fast
forwarded. A fix is mentioned on the web, to add following line /etc/rc.conf:
sndiod_flags="-a on"
But it did not solve the problem. 
However, when multimedia/mpv is installed from ports (after enabling Pulseaudio
option), then the audio works very well with Pulse Output. As, for virtual
machines, the only fix of the problem is to add PulseAudio every time,
therefore, it would be beneficial to enable it by default in the ports.
