Most distros have pulseaudio split up the way it is intended by the authors=

=20

itself: libpulse which apps use trying to contact the pulse-daemon and=20

pulseaudio containing the daemon itself.

Thus uninstalling the daemon doesn't force removal of the apps using it "ju=

st"=20

for sound.
When I say "most" I mean at least debian/ubuntu.
Other than that, the best solution would be to place your own empty,=20

executable bash-script called "pulseaudio" in bin to overwrite the executio=

n=20

and hope that the init-script doesn't have a fixed path. Otherwise you have=

 to=20

remove/disable/overwrite the distributions executable after every=20

reinstall/update...
Hope that helps,
Arnold
