With the latest patches committed there are only two valgrind-related
issues left on my radar. The one above and the write_volume one from
another thread.

I did try two load all modules in pulseaudio under valgrind, but some
did not succeed, most notably bluetooth and echo-cancel related stuff.
If someone could try those under valgrind, that would be great. I'm
available on irc for support in getting it running, if necessary.

Also, all testing was done just loading the daemon. pactl list did
work, but playing audio was not possible, probably because my machine
is far too slow to run realtime audio with valgrind's checks enabled.
If someone with a more beefier computer could just load the default
configuration under valgrind and play some audio to test for memory
leaks in those code paths, that would be great too.
