I have a Thinkpad X61 Tablet, and am also experiencing this bug. The
pulseaudio daemon never runs. When I try to launch it in a terminal, I
see this:
E: module-alsa-card.c: Failed to find a working profile.
E: module.c: Failed to load module "module-alsa-card" (argument:
"device_id="29" name="platform-thinkpad_acpi"
card_name="alsa_card.platform-thinkpad_acpi" tsched=yes ignore_dB=no
card_properties="module-udev-detect.discovered=1""): initialization failed.
pulseaudio: could not connect to socket
pulseaudio: No such file or directory
Also relevant is:

Notice that card29 is from the Thinkpad Embedded Controller, and that it
presents a control, but not a PCM. Pulseaudio is getting the device from
udev, but it can't set it up because it has no pcm. I think that
pulseaudio really ought to just ignore that device, at least for the
time being. That's fine because it never knew about it prior to this
anyway and sound worked just fine. I will research this and see if it's
a udev change or what that needs to be done, and will post a patch or
whatever it takes when I find out what to do.
