The only thing you accomplish removing alsa-plugins-pulseaudio
is the suppression of this file:

[cascavel:/etc/alsa] more pulse-default.conf
# pulseaudio plugin configuration

pcm.!default {
    type pulse
}

ctl.!default {
    type pulse
}

It gives you the default for alsa. If you create a ~/.asoundrc

for your needs it will produce the same result.

You need to create some udev rules:
