Public bug reported:

When calling:

    sudo service pulseaudio stop

I've got the following answer:

    stop: Unknown instance:

Also pulseaudio is running with the connected user:

    /usr/bin/pulseaudio --start --log-target=syslog

One way to stop it is to use:

    /usr/bin/pulseaudio --kill

Or:

    /usr/bin/pasuspender

I wish I could do something like:

    sudo service pulseaudio suspend

The rationale behind this is to be able to use ALSA apps without having
pulseaudio taking control of the sound card in between.
