Thank you Mikkel, for your attempt to help.
I did edit /etc/pulse/daemon.conf to set these non-standard values:
daemonize = yes
use-pid-file = no
system-instance = yes
but it didn't change anything. I didn't see anything else in
/etc/pulse/* that seemed relevant. The system daemon ran but remained
impervious to any sound generation by root or dad. Curiously, skype
was able to produce its sound effects.

The problem with the world is stupidity. I'm not saying there should
be capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the
safety labels off everything and let the problem solve itself?
