Comment(by Rudd-O):

 "As noted about six times now, the users client.conf will override the
 system one and thus even if you don't start the server, the user will have
 their own pulse autospawned anyway."

 Ah, so you say:

 ----------------

 /etc/pulse/client.conf
 server = somemachine

 ~/.pulse/client.conf
 ; server = notconfigured_or_file_absent

 ----------------

 Explain how exactly will a server be autospawned when the client library
 will SKIP the autospawning, contact somemachine and attempt to play audio
 there?

 Really, please humor me.  I tested this here -- IT DOES NOT HAPPEN.  This
 claim of yours is FALSE.
