Hi, dived into the audio startup of mate, it looks like the pulseaudio user service process is not started at all, so the pactl calls in /usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-x11 (which is called in the 'personal startup applications' set) fail. I hacked the 'puseaudio --start' call into that script, which does not work ideal, but after the second login (when a leftover pulseaudio user process is still running) most functionality works (on some machines the master volume does not affect firefox sound, it only mutes or unmutes). Also missing is the org.mate.desktop.sound mixer-device, which is empty, but should have '/dev/mixer' as default (configure in dconf). The pactl calls, the mate-volume-control and gvfs-hal-volume-monitor should wait somehow on the pulseaudio daemon process to start.
