Yup, that's the correct log file. I can see the ALSA sink, multiple
clients connecting to the daemon (including Asterisk), etc.

Let's see ..

You're using system mode, which disables shared memory, and thus
negatively affects latency (and in latency-demanding apps this
can indeed produce cracks)

Not a shared-memory pool, due to running in system mode..

Here is Asterisk connecting..

...

and here are the buffer underruns that keeps arising (thus
producing audible cracks) until the PulseAudio daemon is shutdown.

>From all of the above, it seems like 1) enabling shared-memory by
running PA in user mode, and 2) enabling shared ringbuffer support
by passing "srbchannel=true" to module-native-protocol-unix, are
the logical next steps to try.

Good luck,
