Not only. For some packages it’s a compile-time choice.

Indeed. I just checked on Debian and the situation is similar. It’s
doing something quite sophisticated; from
/usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf.d/pulse.conf:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
# PulseAudio alsa plugin configuration file to set the pulseaudio plugin as
# default output for applications using alsa when pulseaudio is running.
hook_func.pulse_load_if_running {
lib "libasound_module_conf_pulse.so"
func "conf_pulse_hook_load_if_running"
}
@hooks [
{
func pulse_load_if_running
files [
"/usr/share/alsa/pulse-alsa.conf"
"/etc/asound.conf"
"~/.asoundrc"
]
errors false
}
]
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
I tried it on GuixSD and couldn’t get it to work though.
