I did a similar work-around fix when first faced with the same problem on Devuan. However, I think the proper fix, as pointed out by Ken, is to edit /etc/pulse/client.conf.d/00-disable-autospawn.conf and comment out the "autospawn=no" line. This is the solution that I'm currently using on all my Devuan Beowulf systems without encountering any issues. I wonder why Devuan isn't distributing a patched version of pulseaudio that has this configured correctly by default?
