I wrote this hack handy to see if pulse was still leaking memory and thought 
I'd share:
while true; do
    echo -n "$(date +'%m/%d/%Y %H:%M:%S - ')" >> pulse-audio-memleak.txt
    ps -o args=,rss= $(pgrep -f 'pulseaudio --start') >> pulse-audio-memleak.txt
    sleep 60
done

It seems that the ppa packages have fixed the bug. I'll know for sure tomorrow.
