Attempted to use a program which does raw IO to the sound device. "sudo alsa force-unload" finds pulseaudio, kills it, but it comes back before any unload could happen. I see it coming back from init, so I couldn't identify the reason it restarts. This means I'm not alone. As for the Wine part, for me Wine works correctly with pa. Could it be the "wineserver" process the one that restarts pa? :/ I'm talking about precise (12.04) here, so it still exists :|

However, when I enter the command "killall pulseaudio" it doesn't stay killed for more than a second or two. This just started happening today, 8/15, so the regression is probably in today's updates.
