Cool! Go for it.
(I wonder how crappy can libvlc be to be unable to do these correctly)

You could have a look at my PhononIntegration class from
telepathy-call-ui that uses the following algorithm:
- If running on KDE:
  - Use pulseaudio if available
  - Else try alsa/oss following phonon's preferences
  - Else fall back to autoaudiosrc/autoaudiosink
- Else if running on gnome:
  - Use gconfaudiosrc/gconfaudiosink

I could have a look at that as soon as I have some time to see if I
can make it work without resetting the pipeline.

Ask permission? :P
It's not a secret project, you can blog about it without asking for
permission...
