I'm not exactly a Xen expert either, but I asked one:)

Although without Xen-specific code you wouldn't be able to detect the audio
backend itself, it is possible to detect through udev that you are running in a
domU guest (i.e., you are not running in the dom0 'host'). In domU guests you
can't access any hardware devices directly anyway, so your best chance is to
just try the Xen module instead.

I think there shouldn't be a problem with including this in udev-detect. On our
part, we would be very excited to have PulseAudio working without any
configuration in the guest. I'll try to update the code as soon as possible.
