Try uninstalling the items that need pulseaudio-2[glib] (find replacements):
emerge --depclean -av gnome-base/gnome-control-center
gnome-base/gnome-settings-daemon
(Or use -C and you can clean dependencies later)
Then run emerge again.
You cannot mask >=pulseaudio-3 because it's long gone out of the tree.
