Get a list of applicable packages for removal:
rpm -qa \*pulseaudio\*
Iterate over that list, running either:
rpm -e --test $package
to see what will cry about it being removed due to listed deps or
yum erase $package
And see what leaf packages yum wants to kill off with the listed
package (yum does gratuitous removals of leaf packages by default, and
it quite often gets it wrong).
PA should be able to be gutted without too much trouble but it's always
good to review via the above or similar means (repoquery looking for at
the dep chains, for instance).

asks the question, "Is it right?" And there comes a time when one must take
a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular but one must take
it because one's conscience tells one that it is right.
