Then it works.

Bad idea, the misconfigured default-sink was not reason for my problems as just
"enabling" the alsa sink module created the same problem again. My screen
stayed black again. At the very same moment I had, like, seven pulseaudio
processes running at the same time, albeit no log entry at all this time.
However, I did manager to lose all my desktop configuration this time. I guess
the next time I try I better use a test user. :)
