That's because PA automatically kills itself when no app uses it. When
is running it blocks the sound card, when doesn't it's free for other

You just need the ALSA pulse plugin... if PA is enabled in KDE we will
make sure that if PA is used then the ALSA pulse plugin is also
enabled automatically so you will not have these problems.
