Intentional or not, it's bad behavior: It's clearly a dist configuration
that cannot be overridden either by user or by local system settings. As
said earlier: People might have any number of reasons for not wanting
this hardcoded override that the pulse package does.

The default pcm/ctl is configurable in alsa, it no longer is when
pulseaudio is running. If this pcm/ctl override were the only or prime
reason to run pulseaudio then it'd be ok, but that's not the case.

I therefore persist: It would be good if this was overridable at least
on the system level, typically through a setting in
/etc/default/pulseaudio.
