What exactly is the purpose of the sdk USE flag? To provide the files required for development with PulseAudio? Compiling apulse with the sdk flag had no noticeable effect on Android Studio, but it did cause Unity (the game engine) to crash at startup. I'm not sure if this is a problem with Unity (happened with all versions I tested) or the apulse package. - Lasse
