Thanks!  Yes, seting PULSEAUDIO=on in audio/openal-soft fixed qTox.

However, the problem is that every `pkg upgrade' tries to overwrite the custom
package (from ports).  Also, the fix works only with ports and if someone
(“normal users”) relies on binary packages, qTox+openal-soft is not usable.

Is there any way to fix the package permanently (e.g. by setting PULSEAUDIO to
on by default)?  I guess that PULSEAUDIO is disabled to reduce the number of
dependencies, but it's actually necessary for qTox to work.  What do you think
about it?

Thanks again for your reply!


PS I added mva@ as the maintainer of audio/openal-soft to the conversation.
