Not init. You can configure it to start a systemwide server, which I
suspect is started by X.

If you are using the default Fedora setup, you have your own version of
pulse started when you log in.  I notice that it also can be started by
programs that need its services, and that seems to be gconf-helper.

No representation as to validity of the above, might contain wild
supposition and unsubstantiated misinformation. If you want pulse
information, go to the horses mouth
