Am I missing something here... default.pa is the startup script and if it exists in ~/.pulse it overrides the one in /etc/pulse/. The system-wide one won't be read at all. Even with the daemon.conf file, the same logic is true (even if it would in theory be possible to read both, with the local file overriding the system wide one on a setting-by-setting basis) Perhaps I'm misunderstanding tho'....
