No, it won´t with per user sessions.

Edit "exit 0" into

martin@merkaba:~> which start-pulseaudio-x11
/usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-x11
martin@merkaba:~> which start-pulseaudio-kde 
/usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-kde

(and possibly add some diversion or do chattr +i to avoid having those 
files overwritten on package upgrades)

or switch Pulseaudio in non supported system-wide mode in 
/etc/default/pulseaudio and then do

insserv -r pulseaudio

insserv pulseaudio,stop=0,1,2,3,4,5,6,S

(the latter to avoid having it re-install the start links on package 
upgrades)
