The only package that needs to be removed is alsa-plugins-pulseaudio. Doing this is sufficient to get your sound working again. Neither pulseaudio, or any of the other pulseaudio packages need to be removed. F8 will still update pulseaudio packages, but will not, repeat, will not re-install alsa-plugins-pulseaudio, so your sound (hopefully) will continue to work. Cordially.
