That might be an issue, but your $PULSE_CONFIG should at least point to
the right default.pa.  It should especially not be the daemon.conf
shipped with pulseaudio, because we override flat-volumes (which most
distros agree has an insane default).

Btw. please keep the bug in your reply, so that others can follow.  The
easiest way of doing so is to use "reply to all" in your mail client.
