I believe the --global option should do what you want:

systemctl --global --user edit pulseaudio.service

and I presume that needs to be run as root, so it can write
to /etc/systemd/user/pulseaudio.service.d/override.conf.

Or you can just create the override config directly.

I've only done the latter, so I can't say the former works
as written with certainty.
