(Stefan:  Why would apexsink be probed by autoaudiosink?  Its rank is NONE.)

IMO, it makes sense to increase pulsesink to PRIMARY+10, since it really is
always preferred over any other output if it happens to be running.

It's unclear if jacksink should be PRIMARY at all, since jack is a "specialty"
output, and not general purpose.

To that effect,

    pulse: Increase ranks to PRIMARY + 10

    So that pulsesrc/pulsesink get chosen over other possible PRIMARY
    src/sinks by autoaudiosink.  Presumably, if pulse is available, it
    is always preferred over another src/sink.

    Fixes: #647540.
