Taking into account the fact that the backend we have is a user-space application

You mean that any alsa-lib or libpulse applications run on Dom0 as a
backend driver for the frontend driver on DomU?

No, the sound backend [1] is a user-space application (ALSA/PulseAudio client)
which runs as a Xen para-virtual backend in Dom0 and serves all the
frontends running in DomU(s).
Other ALSA/PulseAudio clients in Dom0 are also allowed to run at the
same time.
