Does the new xfce4-volumed require pulseaudio to function? If not, the easiest fix will be to remove it from the recommends of xfce4-volumed and just allow pulseaudio to be pulled in by desktop (say xubuntu- desktop etc) metapackages instead. If it does require pulseaudio to function, we'll need to remove xfce4-volumed from mythbuntu-desktop and set up update-manager to remove it on upgrade somehow.

My apt.log file contains the following. new important dependency: pulseaudio:i386 Installing pulseaudio as Recommends of xfce4-volumed xfce4-volumed was installed with a clean 12.04 install and kept at the same version after the 12.10 upgrade. I'm assuming removing xfce4-volumed before upgrading to 13.04 would fix the problem. Not sure how this is done in the upgrade process itself though.
