I found this article:

http://dailypackage.fedorabook.com/index.php?/archives/172-Wednesday-Why-How-does-Pulseaudio-start.html

but it appears that it no longer applies.

$ ps -ef | grep pulse
steve    30603     1  0 10:07 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/pulseaudio
--start --log-target=syslog

so either pulseaudio was started by init or whatever started it has
since died. Anyway it is not started by gnome-session.

$ ps -ef | grep gnome-session
steve    30486 17079  0 10:07 ?        00:00:00 gnome-session

I can't find any reference to pulseaudio in any init file

# grep pulse /etc/*init*
#

So where does it get started?
