Yes, they seem to run as two different users as you suggested:
ga@grzes:~$ ps -lA | grep pulse
1 S   115  2492     1  0  80   0 - 25937 ?      ?        00:00:02 pulseaudio
1 S  1000  2636     1  0  69 -11 - 24618 -      ?        00:00:00 pulseaudio

user 115 seems to be speech-dispatcher (what is this???) and 1000 is my account.

after killing these two, the new process runs as me:
grzes:/home/ga# killall pulseaudio
grzes:/home/ga# ps -lA | grep pulse
1 S  1000  3145     1  0  69 -11 - 26414 -      ?        00:00:00 pulseaudio

(and the sound works). So what is this speech-dispatcher? Why is it
running a dogdy instance of pulseaudio?
