Xulrunner 2.0 seems to demand Alsa : any advice ?
 

Wanting to try Firefox 4.0 , I tried to emerge Xulrunner 2.0
& ran into this problem :

root:526 profile> emerge -pv xulrunner
...
net-libs/xulrunner-2.0 [1.9.2.15] USE="-alsa -crashreporter% -custom-optimization dbus -debug (-gnome%) -ipc (-java%*) -libnotify -startup-notification -system-sqlite -webm% -wifi"

root:527 profile> emerge xulrunner
...
checking for alsa... Package alsa was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `alsa.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'alsa' found
configure: error: Need alsa for Ogg, Wave or WebM decoding on Linux.
Disable with --disable-ogg --disable-wave --disable-webm.

As cb seen, I have USE="-alsa -webm".
I tried adding 'alsa-lib' to 'package.provided' without any success.
I don't have sound hardware or sound enabled in my kernel.

Does anyone have suggestions or should I file a bug ?
