for sure users should be warned of this important change, anyway I doubt
any user using sound does not use %desktop-services (possibly customized)

yes please: sound related services are not-so-base, we do not need them
on installation/web/mail/DNS et. al servers (and containers) and it does
not makes much sense to remove them an all that class of
hosts/containers

it makes sense - semantically speaking - to move sound to
%desktop-services since we only need sound on desktops

thanks!
