It's possible to pin pulseaudio so it never returns and you will of course have alsa only issues with which to deal afterwards.

Hey Craig: The only time I see that behaviour is when pulseaudio is running and it gets in the way of multiple audio streams. To check if that's the case you can:

ps aux | grep pulse

And kill it off it pulseaudio is running. You should also check to see
if there is a pulseaudio.conf or something like that in
/usr/share/alsa/ and remove it which will prevent alsa from restarting
it.

That's my only suggestion. You can try removing the pulseaudio package
but it is a dependency for a lot of other packages so will probably be
reinstalled on future apt upgrades.

 Hi, guys,

 I have a weird thing going on.  When I start M player, it runs through
 the file o.k, but nothing comes out of the speakers, and all my speech
 goes away in my text consoles.

 I'm running Wheezy Debian Seven sixty-four-bit.  What say you?
