I have things working with PulseAudio since Fedora 9 and currently have it
working with Fedora 11.  I think the configuration should be the same for
Fedora 12.

I have the following packages, I think the "alsa-plugins-pulseaudio" is
commonly missed and important for myth:

You probably want all of these:
pulseaudio-libs-0.9.15-17.fc11.i586
pulseaudio-libs-zeroconf-0.9.15-17.fc11.i586
pulseaudio-0.9.15-17.fc11.i586
pulseaudio-module-x11-0.9.15-17.fc11.i586
pulseaudio-utils-0.9.15-17.fc11.i586
pulseaudio-module-gconf-0.9.15-17.fc11.i586
pulseaudio-libs-glib2-0.9.15-17.fc11.i586
alsa-plugins-pulseaudio-1.0.21-2.fc11.i586


These may be handy:
pulseaudio-module-bluetooth-0.9.15-17.fc11.i586
xine-lib-pulseaudio-1.1.16.3-2.fc11.i586
kde-settings-pulseaudio-4.2-12.1.noarch

Make sure you have your PCM device configured correctly in myth and your
os if your using SPDIF.
