PulseAudio is not directly related to the main issue. I assume that you work with 'ffado-mixer'. Once you launch the application, 'ffado-dbus-server' launches. This server has an issue to lost communication at bus-reset, due to libffado defection as a system server. I described this issue in this thread: https://sourceforge.net/p/ffado/mailman/message/35069329/ Typically, when starting to work with your unit, you change sampling transfer frequency of the unit or signal sources of sampling clock. Then in most cases the unit disappears from IEEE 1394 bus, then generate bus-reset. If you start ffado-dbus-server in advance, you can't use ffado-mixer anymore. Besides, in this case, you must kill ffado-dbus-server manually in any terminals. To me, it's quite inconvenient. That's the reason I recommend you to purchace another one. I know there're many alternatives with more convenient features. It's 2016.
