I've just found out that the sound muting upon switching users wah
actually provided by HAL.

ConsoleKit generates event (user/console switch) it goes through the
PolicyKit and then reaches HAL which does sth. to the
pulseaudio/audio_device/i_dont_know_what_else which stops the audio.

Since ubuntu 9.10 switched to udev (dumping HAL) this functionality is
not longer available.... perhaps it is possible to do the same thig with
udev but i'm not sure yet.
