Works here is defined as shows pa in kde system/multimedia.
This definition is incorrect. A "PulseAudio" device showing up means
PulseAudio Phonon integration is NOT working because module-device-manager
is not loaded (and that's expected if you just use pulseaudio --start
instead of start-pulseaudio-kde, because start-pulseaudio-kde is what loads
module-device-manager). So everything is working as designed and your "fix"
actually breaks it.
