I may be misunderstanding you here, but when was the last Ubuntu release where you gave Pulse a try before removing it? It sounds like you were very very quick to do so with Lucid. However, things have changed a lot lately (given that PulseAudio is being developed extremely actively). The software works considerably better in Lucid than it did in Karmic.
