Try building the latest GIT pulseaudio. I had all of the same problems before, but they are fixed in GIT. I don't expect that F9 will push any version updates in the post-release cycle, but there may still be hope for F10. You'll need http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/DependenciesListDistroSpecific and http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/DownloadPulseAudio#DevelopmentSources if you are inexperienced with building PA from source.
