Public bug reported:

Loading the pulseaudio module 'module-alsa-sink' with the "control"
argument causes pulseaudio to segfault on my system.

In /etc/pulse/default.pa find this line:

#load-module module-alsa-sink

and change it to this:

load-module module-alsa-sink control=Master

then restart pulseaudio by running these commands:

pulseaudio -k
pulseaudio --start

Notice that it prints this into the terminal.
E: [pulseaudio] main.c: Daemon startup failed.

Try starting pulseaudio itself in the terminal, and you see what's happening:
W: [pulseaudio] pid.c: Stale PID file, overwriting.
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

** Affects: pulseaudio (Ubuntu)
