I started getting this problem a few days after upgrading to Intrepid.
While restarting PulseAudio manually (like kylea) was making it work, I
was getting fed up and found this issue.  Taking Luke's advice and
disabling the gnome sound events then restarting worked a treat.  I was
then able to re-enable them, restart, and everything is working as
expected.  The steps were basically:

1. Login (actually, it was an auto login - could this be the source of the 
problem?)
2. Apps couldn't connect to PA
3. gconftool-2 -s -t bool /desktop/gnome/sound/event_sounds false
4. Restart
5. Test PA using the PA Setup and also check sound plays in Banshee - no probs.
6. gconftool-2 -s -t bool /desktop/gnome/sound/event_sounds true
7. Immediately hear the Ubuntu login sound playing
8. Restart
9. Auto login and Ubuntu login sound plays, Banshee plays, PA Setup works, 
etc...

I'm unsure what /desktop/gnome/sound/event_sounds was set to prior to
the changes (I should have checked).  Maybe it wasn't set and defaulting
back to the schema value?  I can't understand though why setting to
false then true would have solved the problem.
