My apologies, it's been a while since I used one.

Ah, yes, of course. And it would almost be ironic if upstream pulseaudio
were including support for pm-utils, given the existence and direction of
systemd!

Yep, I'll just script around the existing distro-supplied PA pm-utils
stuff. Initially, I simply verified that unloading/loading
module-jackdbus-detect worked as expected. It works very nicely, as it
happens; module-jackdbus-detect removes the jack sinks/sources as it is
unloaded, so there is no issue with duplication.

Thanks for helping me work through this. This old aureon firewire is
actually now has better desktop integration under linux with
ffado/jack/pulse than it is under windows with the proprietory drivers. In
windows, there isn't even a possibility that I can get the aureon to handle
suspend/resume correctly; I have to pull the cable...
