I have had reliable sound with Trinity 3.5.13.2 + Pulseaudio with:

Debian Testing (about a year old)
Debian Wheezy 7.6 (very recent stable)
Mint 15 (based on Ubuntu 13.04)
Ubuntu 13.04

Audio was hopeless on most distros older than that with
various earlier versions of Trinity or other desktops, both
with and without pulseaudio.

Sound didn't work on a recent R14 nightly on Ubuntu 14.04.
