For those who are curious about why the 01PulseAudio script even exists,
it's because there were some buggy ALSA drivers in the kernel that
didn't get resumed properly if PulseAudio was still accessing them when
the kernel suspended. The result was that if there were applications
playing sound (and hence, PulseAudio accessing the soundcard),
PulseAudio and all applications attempting to play sound would hang upon
resuming.

The script does not mute/unmute, but rather suspends PulseAudio, hence
forcing it to release the sound card prior to suspending the kernel, and
unsuspends PulseAudio after resuming.
