Try:
$ sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio stop
before the modem tests.

OK, it tries to dial. \o/

/etc/init.d/pulseadio {stop,force-stop} does not work;
says pulseaudio configured on a per user session basis.

I had to use some methods in

http://idyllictux.wordpress.com/2009/04/21/ubuntu-904-jaunty-keeping-the-beast-pulseaudio-at-bay/
sudo mv /etc/X11/Xsession.d/70pulseaudio /root/
sudo update-rc.d -f pulseaudio remove
asoundconf unset-pulseaudio
/etc/pulse/client.conf:autospawn = no

later try to enable Alsa while using the modem; this way
it is all off; jaunty with intrepid kernel.)

Attached some files. I think I need to check with the owner
of the account on the username/password again, the username
looked funny with two @ signs in it, but they reassured me
that is what the provider told them.

I use gnome-ppp for a user in the dialout and dip groups.
