Bug#705426: [pulseaudio] The bug has reappeared with pulseaudio 5.0

I have added a line with the content
NotShowIn=KDE;
at the bottom of the file /etc/xdg/autostart/pulseaudio.desktop

and after a day with many login performed after a logout or a cold boot 
I can confirm that the solution proposed by Török solves my problem and 
the login time seems to be more lean and fast

and I'm amazed for the correct behaviour of pulseaudio in KDE.
I have looking into /usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-x11 (executed by 
/etc/xdg/autostart/pulseaudio.desktop) and /usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-kde 
(executed by /etc/xdg/autostart/pulseaudio-kde.desktop) to understand 
the problem.
I have noted that the code of start-pulseaudio-x11 contains also some 
istructions to kill pulseaudio instead of start-pulseaudio-kde that 
simply launches the server.
However I have verified that pulseaudio is not in running between a 
logout and the next login (it's the expected behaviour), well.
