0.9.11 is needed for START/STOP events to be sent to the line listeners. 
There is actually a bug in pulseaudio that causes the start callback to 
not be called sometimes that's been fixed in 9.13, so it's better to 
have that version, but we have added some checks in java so 9.11 and 
9.12 should work as well.  We can write a patch so that it compiles and 
runs with 9.10, but the events won't work. Mark, I remember you were 
saying you had a patch for that. Is it working?
