However, I then installed apulse. When I tried running it nothing happens:
$ apulse [rshepard@salmo ~]$

Update:

I missed reading the line that pulseaudio needs to be removed before
installing apulse. So I un-installed apulse and pulseaudio and re-installed
apulse. Typing that command at the shell prompt appears to do nothing.

Un-installed apulse and re-installed pulseaudio. Now it sees the cards in
/proc/asound.

pavucontrol's configuration has
HDA-ATI HDMI Profile: off
HD-Audio Generic Profile: Analog Stereo Output

and the Output Devices tab displays
HD-Audio Generic Analog Stereo Port: Line out (Plugged in)

and,

$ pulseaudio-ctl
No PulseAudio daemon running, or not running as session daemon.

pulseaudio-ctl v1.67

 /usr/bin/pulseaudio-ctl {up,down,mute,mute-input,set,atmost,full-status} [n]

 Where up and down adjust volume in ±5 % increments
 Where up and down [n] adjust volume in ±n % increments
 Where mute toggles the mute status on/off
 Where mute-input toggles the input status on/off
 Where set set the volume to [n] %
 Where atmost only takes effect if current volume is higher than [n]
 Where full-status prints volume level, sink and source mute state to stdout

 Optionally, redefine an upper threshold in 
/home/rshepard/.config/pulseaudio-ctl/config

 Volume level     :  %
 Is sink muted    :
 Is source muted  :
 Detected sink    :
 Detected source  :

while,

# ps ax | grep pulseaudio
 4519 ?        S<l    0:00 /usr/bin/pulseaudio
20780 pts/3    S+     0:00 grep pulseaudio
21199 ?        S<l   33:28 /usr/bin/pulseaudio --system 
--disallow-module-loading
27906 ?        S<l    0:00 pulseaudio

do I need to kill all pulseaudio processes then re-start using 'pulseaudio &'?
