I can do a lot of bug triaging ... build problems, upgrade problems,
ICEs, segmentation faults, ...
But I'm absolutely clueless if it comes to sound. What additional
information could be helpful? I don't know. Sound works. I'd actually
have to check whether I have pulseaudio installed ...
Since collection of more information seems to be the problematic part, a
bug-script could be helpful, so I just filed #739294.
Thereafter maybe the quickfix solution (apt-get remove pulseaudio) could
be replaced (or amended) by
reportbug pulseaudio
# maybe this is already sufficient to discover and fix common
misconfigurations

PS: Install the bug script etc. in *all* related packages. Users usually
pick the "wrong" one to report gainst. (dh_bugfiles -A)
