Yes, moreover, the level of output from pulseaudio verbose mode is too
much for normal usage so it cannot be automatically included.

Second attempt is to do `ls /dev/snd/control*` , and run `udevadm info
$controlfile` for each result.
But, I somehow missed over the fact that in the initial bug report,
one of the attachments shows alsa knows nothing of the sound blaster.
If alsa does not know about it, then neither will pulseaudio. This
most likely is a problem in the kernel, so I am reassigning there and
CCing the kernel list.

The emu10k1 (or emu10k1x) driver (for the sound blaster) is not
loaded, so this is almost certainly a kernel problem.
