I haven't investigated that far. I'm just stating a fact.
I don't know what's the purpose of pulseaudio nor what are the benefits of
having installed it. I don't know if it would break something to remove it.
I believe it was installed at some point as part of a routine system update
and may have been the cause of the sound failure in the first place.
