Have you done *any* basic, proactive analysis yet?


ls -ld / /usr /usr/bin /usr/bin/pulseaudio

sudo grep -ri pulse /etc/crontab /etc/cron.* /var/spool/cron 

find /lib/systemd /var/lib/systemd /etc/systemd -name '*.timer' \
  -exec grep -i pulse /dev/null {} +


The first one should give 4 lines of output.  Show them.

The latter two don't give any output on my system.  If they give anything
on yours, show it.  And then investigate it.  And then tell us what you
learned.

If you can think of any other places from which an automatic or timed job
might run and do *ANYTHING AT ALL* involving pulseaudio, investigate it.
And then tell us what it was, how you investigated it, and what you
learned.
