    It seems we currently have several IUSE for the same purpose, with **sound** probably having oldest mentions[1].
    This came up while working on virtual/sound-theme and splitting up media-libs/libcanberra[2], and could be dealt with in the same PR.

    - Should we consolidate these into a single IUSE?
    - Which one?
    - Any other IUSE with the same purpose not listed here?

    I think that depends on how widely you define "same purpose".

    In my opinion, there's a difference between "notification sounds" (i.e.
    some app makes random noise that I don't want) and "sound support
    in general" (i.e. having a media player or a game with sound output).
