Assuming pulseaudio was the culprit (which seems likely) it probably
was *not* installed when I installed alpha 2. It must have been
entrained with something I installed later, but I can't tell what.
Aptitude didn't want to delete anything much as a result of deleting
pulseaudio, n=so I can't tell what seemed to need it. Maybe it was a
spurious dependency that was later corrected?
