Phonon is currently set up for vlc.

When I try to in the traditional way, I get:
[defiant /home/storm]# /etc/init.d/pulseaudio stop
[warn] PulseAudio configured for per-user sessions ... (warning).
And the process is still running:
[defiant /home/storm]# ps auxww | grep pulse
storm 4756 0.0 0.0 319820 6700 ? S<l Jul09 5:54
/usr/bin/pulseaudio --start --log-target=syslog
So it is probably coming off in the very near term.
this will prevent pulseaudio from starting in your current runlevel:
update-rc.d -f pulseaudio remove
reboot and pulseaudio should not be there anymore, but if not... kill -9 $(pidof pulseaudio) is your friend :-)
you can enable pulseaudio again when you've done with:
update-rc-d pulseaudio defaults
Thanks Raffaele,
