Moin Marc,


my /etc/passwd:
- - - - - - - -
pulse:x:113:121:PulseAudio daemon,,,:/var/run/pulse:/bin/false

my /etc/group:
- - - - - - - -
audio:x:29:pulse,my_userid
pulse:x:121:my_userid
pulse-access:x:122:my_userid


my pulseaudio refresh (if no sound):
- - - - - - - - - - - 
pulseaudio --kill && alsamixer -c0

make sure 'pulseaudio' is loaded only once
(check with 'ps ax | grep pulseaudio')
