Looking in the process table that I see under KDE System Monitor (what I usually use to keep track of system loading) I now see pulseaudio in there twice.  One shows the command you mention here,  and the other one doesn't,  and says "daemonize=no".  I'm guessing that's the problem,  where to fix it is another question.  Mousing over it I also see "parent=systemd" for both of them...

Since it just happened... I'll say that pulseaudio is easily on
the same level of reliability as Windows 95. I decided to test
out the advertised capability of a music player as a USB DAC. As
soon as I got things plugged in, the pulseaudio daemon crashed.
After I restarted it, the pulseeffects equalizer service froze. 
After I restarted that, pulseeffects decided that it would be a
good idea to use the USB microphone as both default input and
output...

It's currently working. But I'd so much rather have systems that
didn't think that they should switch configurations
automatically, since PA is so terrible at reading my mind.

Anyway, upgrade to bullseye.
