In a typical PA setup, module-udev-detect is used to load all alsa devices. Is that how your setup is working? If so, udev is the one that notices the new h/w and puts out a signal that PA's module-udev-detect spots. When it spots this, PA will load a new module-alsa-card for the device and it should subsequently show up in pacmd list-sinks. If you need more help to understand things, you'll need to post your default.pa file (assuming you're running a standard per-user setup) and ideally the debug output from "pulseaudio -vvvvv" from the start through to when you plug a device in.
