Public bug reported:

The pulseaudio upstart user session job from ubuntu-touch-session,
/usr/share/upstart/sessions/pulseaudio.conf, runs a post-start script
that polls for /run/user/`id -u`/pulse/dbus-socket.  Versions of
pulseaudio in wily or later do not appear to create this socket anymore;
they only create /run/user/$id/pulse/native.

It's possible this is because the /etc/pulse/touch.pa config is not
being properly applied and therefore module-dbus-protocol.so is not
being loaded.  Regardless of the root cause, the symptom I'm seeing is
that an emulator instance running wily fails to ever start the
pulseaudio job.

The post-start script shown in this job, where the script polls waiting
for the creation of the socket, is also quite bad.  upstart does have
inotify support; the affected jobs can instead be started directly on
creation of the relevant socket.
