I don't know why software mixing always comes up when talking about PA,
because it's really pretty irrelevant. ALSA itself has been able to do
software mixing for years and years, since before PA was commonly used.
There's an ALSA module called 'dmix' which does software mixing and
which is loaded by default for all ALSA drivers nowadays. Software
mixing is not a benefit of PA, in any practical sense.
