Not specifically high CPU usage. Mine just stopped loading. A
conflict between pulseaudio and pulseaudio-equalizer I believe.
Discovered a fix by deleting Equalizer start up config that was appended
to .pulse/default.pa in my home directory, but still had to load
pulseaudio manually after booting.* Finally, it stopped loading no
matter what I tried.
Finally, as suggested in one of the docs I read, it said to
delete /etc/pulse and .pulse, and reinstall pulseaudio. I did a little
more before though by installing pavucontrol and paprefs -- they were
never installed, purged pulseaudio, THEN reinstalled it. When X
loaded, pulse was loaded, too. Surprised the hell out of me. Wasn't
expecting it to do that.
Here are links to the docs I used to finally get things working.

*FYI: I don't have a "standard" install of Wheezy 64-bit. Just run
Openbox, Debian Menu and LXPanel. No Desktop Enviornment installed at
all. No Desktop Manager. I boot to a terminal, login and run startx.
