Hey Aere and F, Thanks for your considerations. You both mentioned relevant details but somehow the issue was solved. It is very unfortunate that I have spent so many hours trying to fix it and so many solutions. I cannot track down what did specifically... My goal with the mail and question at askubuntu was also to provide a guidance to similar errors. I'll update the post on askubuntu nevertheless. If I had to guess what cracked it was uninstalling/purging pulseaudio (leaving the alsa modules) and then rebooting. This certainly solved the issue. Then to my astonishment reinstalling pulseaudio left me with a full-working audio again. Again, my heartfelt thanks for both of you. The (l)ubuntu community is inspiring.
