Pulseaudio removed in MATE 1.10 in unstable

Hi,
Is this the correct way to contact the Debian MATE developers?
I am upgrading my unstable system that currently has MATE installed. The
MATE packages I have explicitly installed (i.e. not auto-installed) are:
atril
mate-applets
mate-desktop-environment
mate-icon-theme-faenza
mate-media
mate-power-manager
mate-sensor-applet
mate-themes
mate-utils
As I try to upgrade mate-desktop-environment, apt wants to remove the
pulseaudio package. This is because it is automatically installed and now
no longer needed. It seems it is no longer needed because
mate-settings-daemon no longer depends on mate-settings-daemon-pulse as it
now replaces it. However the new 1.10 mate-settings-daemon pulse does not
depend on pulseaudio.
Is this intentional? Since the pulseaudio package contains the pulseaudio
daemon, it seems I will need to explicitly install pulseaudio or lose
sound. This behaviour seems to be incorrect for an upgrade.
Also, the Debian MATE wiki still says v1.8 of MATE is in unstable and
testing.
Thanks
