After searching for solutions for ages I eventually found a link which suggested" he PulseAudio sound server has been rewritten to use timer-based audio scheduli ng instead of the traditional interrupt-driven approach. Timer-based scheduling may expose issues in some Alsa drivers. To turn timer-based scheduling off, repl ace the line load-module module-hal-detect in /etc/pulse/default.pa by load-module module-hal-detect tsched=0 " After doing this and rebooting then sound in pulseaudio was fine on that system. So sometimes there is documentation, and if we are lucky then it fixes our own problem, but clearly newly developed and released software can and does still have issues. If we report on the BZ appropriately and give suitable diagnostics hopefully the code will get fixed - and yes I saw the ding-dong quoted earlier in this thread. Sound is not the only issue - there are fixes needed for plymouth, xorg.conf-free X, SElinux etc etc etc....
