I would rather say it is because of putting another audio server where it is not needed at all. ALSA alone does its job well enough nowadays (and if it does not, it should be fixed not wrapped with another layer). Fortunately things have not gone too far yet and a system without PulseAudio can still be set up (there was no such freedom in the dark ages of ESD and ARTS). This /sbin/init things are not that easy. We will always need some init daemon… though I still won't chose an implementation only basing on the fact that the idea is great. It must work and be maintained (or at least stable as SysVinit) too.
