If I start pulseaudio with init.d (and jackd would not be running at this
point), it busies up the card and jackd will not start. Actually, it did start
but with an error saying it didn't. No pulse ports appeared. The bare ogg123
did not sound. Jack will soon crash out, taking pulseaudio with it.

If I start pulseaudio as user, it will fail if jackd is not running. If jackd
is running, pulse will start. I have the output port but no capture port. The
bare ogg123 did not sound.

This will only work if that messagb-owned dbus and haldaem-owned hald are
running. These eat up resources, even at idle, and slow things down. If I kill
them, pulseaudio will not start again.
