Briefly, from the systemctl status reports, errors for the two machines where system-wide pulseaudio, failed that appear to be the most significant are as follows:
ASUS-based desktop (linux-3): line 50. Nov 01 15:53:43 linux-3.home pulseaudio[7348]: Denied access to client with invalid authentication data.
Dell laptop (linux-7): line 74. Job for pulseaudio.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
Here is a link to the journalctl -xe report for the Dell laptop, which lists in part issues that appear to concern the network:

Since getting pulseaudio running system-wide on one machine (an HP desktop; linux-6), I've attempted to replicate the configuration on two other machines, a Dell laptop (linux-7) and a desktop with an ASUS motherboard (linux-3). Both attempts and subsequent
retries failed.
The susepaste text file (https://susepaste.org/66650689) sets out the results of systemctl status showing a wide variety of errors, including errors reported on the machine
where pulseaudio is working system-wide. The last listing, another ASUS-based desktop, was not modified and pulseaudio runs in root as (I believe) a session daemon with the command # pulseaudio --system -D, but I can't get pulseaudio running in the same fashion
on either the Dell laptop (linux-7) or the other ASUS-based desktop (linux-3). In all cases, VLC still works and pulseaudio runs if I log into a user (non-root) session.
