Public bug reported:

For those of us who have to disable pulseaudio (and there are quite a few) this 
just became impossible to do. 
Usually I edit /etc/pulse/client.conf to set "# autospawn=yes" to 
"autospawn=no" and then stop the daemon by killall pulseaudio on startup. 
Well, I can stop pulseaudio, but there appears to be no alsa underneath any 
more. Alsamixer does not work, for example. 
This is very frustrating because I must use alsa and must not use pulseaudio.
User-configurable options have also been removed in the drop-down menu. 
If there is some magic configuration to restore alsa that I am unaware of, this 
should be made available, because so many depend on alsa for day-to-day use.
