GNOME3 force you to install pulseaudio, but at least for my usage it's not needed, it only cause trouble. I'm not sure if I'll install GNOME3 on my Arch, perhaps I'll test Mate. I used GNOME2 (it was upgraded to 3) and XFCE with Debian. Currently for my Arch I'm using XFCE only. For Arch GDM forced me to install PA. I know that there are other login managers available, but since I guess that I'll install some GNOME apps, PA might become an issue in the future, so I kept GDM and already replaced PA by a dummy package.
