Sasquatch, see if this helps any, go to terminal and type: pulseaudio -k; pulseaudio -vvv > ~/pa.log 2>&1 This will output ~/pa.log until pavucontrol is opened and crashes pulseaudio. Would you post that pa.log file here? I cannot tell you much about pacmd because the literature is vague, but pacmd maybe able help a little. It is a cli for pulseaudio daemon. Caution, when entering and exit the pacmd environment, will cause pulseaudio daemon to exit and restart. Can use "pacmd help" for help instead of "pacmd --help".
