Is it normal for pulseaudio to have 20% CPU load?
While I am quite happy with the Jolla battery standby time, I have noticed that if I am listening to music or podcasts, my battery is draining quite much faster than when I am just using apps.
Looking at the "top" output, it shows that pulsaudio has an average load of around 20% on the CPU while music is playing.
Is this normal are there any possibilities for optimization?

UPDATE March 2015: At some point of time (probably with one of the updates) the problem disappeared.
