A wild guess: when installing gstreamer0.10-pulseaudio some other
backends were removed, and no dependency remained on alsa-base.

Since alsa-base is essential to having working sound, I’d suggest moving
it to priority important, and/or adding a dependency somewhere in the
stack (pulseaudio/linux-any would be a good choice).
