Hi,

yeah start-pulseaudio-kde is a script, ran automatically at kde start 
session automatically without user intervention.

and the failure above MAYBE is (pulseaudio, phonon are obscure arts for 
me) in some machines, well in my machine, is impossible to kill and 
start again or simply restart pulseaudio, so in my computer any change 
in pulseaudio or phonon configuration I needed to reboot to get sound 
working.

so start-pulseaudio-kde only works for me, when runs automatically at 
kde session start, I know which other machines don't have that problem

in few words in , damn in the first email forgot to include this 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=566915#c28, again in few 
words pulseaudio crashes because wants to use too much CPU, so while 
pulseaudio is to be fixed you can use the workaround in 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=566915#c32
