This is probably a defect in PulseAudio itself.  I would suggest removing
PulseAudio completely if it is causing problems.

You can run Jockey (the Ubuntu hardware detection utility) by going to the
Run dialog and type in "kdesudo jockey-gtk" (without the quotes).  The
fact that Jockey does not show up in the Trinity menu system is a known
bug that is being worked on for the next release.

This may be an Upstart bug.

I have no clue on this one, sorry.  It may be an Ubuntu specific setting.
