if it were my box, i would remove/disable all but the RME for testing/troubleshooting.. i would want to here any known good audio file play... could be as simple as an alsa or kernel version not supplying support anymore, or a config issue... i feel the subject line, and your earlier assumption is not correct though "due to pulse"... i usually run aplay -l in the terminal to see if alsa is seeing the devices that pulse would be using...
