I have a different Pulseaudio behavior. Sometimes I use a program which
does not use Pulseaudio but Alsa, then I need to start Pulseaudio
manually if there is no program which produces a sound, e.g. with
‘pulsemixer’. In ‘pulsemixer’ I'll have ‘PROGRAM_NAME: AudioStream’
string after launching Alsa only program, which means I can contol Alsa
only program with Pulseaudio. If I don't run Pulseaudio manually, then
Alsa only program will still a device until the program will be killed.
I don't use any desktop environment, which usually run Pulseaudio
automatically as I know.
Does Conky show you a Pulseaudio current volume? Conky probably runs
Pulseaudio to do it. Also, it will be better to test a Pulseaudio
behavior in a clean environment, e.g. by using a window manager like
Ratpoison.
