Another way of finding the source package is to use yumdownloader with
the --source option.  If you have the source repos enabled in your yum
config already, you can just do yumdownloader --source pulseaudio.

Otherwise you can enable them via the --enablerepo (-e) option.  I
don't know off the top of my head whether you can glob them or not,
but it's worth trying -e '*-source' to see.  Though that would get the
extras-development-source repo enabled too.

I did just test:

yumdownloader --source -e 'core-source' -e 'extras-source' pulseaudio

on a FC6 box that didn't have the source repos enabled in yum.repos.d
and it worked fine.

HTH,
