Thanks :-) Looks like our replies crossed - just posted a reply saying similar, 
noting that this doesn’t happen by default for root.

pulseaudio.inc includes:
# Since many embedded systems don't have non-root users, it's useful to be
# able to use pulseaudio autospawn for root as well.
PACKAGECONFIG[autospawn-for-root] = ",,,"
So it looks as if I may be able to apply some magic and not need a bbappend.
