> Does audio continue working while you are on tty2? Is tty2 logged in?

Yes and irrelevant (happens either way) Note that tty2 is a TEXT console (no X).

I did a reproduction with echo "--MARK--" >> ~/pulseverbose.log and
killed pulseaudio immediately after (within 5 seconds) by ^C. However
the echo line does not appear anywhere in the log file. Tried twice.
No good. Maybe the 5 second window is good enough.

Killing pulseaudio results in a sane system but sound will not play
until a graphics logoff/logon. Curious.
