Only if you want to be able to rm libpulse…

It automatically detects that PulseAudio is not in use and will use plain
ALSA just as before. The PulseAudio integration is only enabled at runtime
if PulseAudio is actually there.

The KMix PulseAudio integration is not shippable in 4.3 nor 4.4, so no, KMix
is not being changed at this time.
See for yourself:

Almost everything is commented out. The code is basically unusable. So you
don't have to fear for your ALSA-enabled KMix just yet. ;-)
