Nice :)

Hmm, strange.

I'd speak to your distro to make sure you have all the necessary support
in your kernel needed for this. It could be related to the SYSFS related
options.

# CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2 is not set

But it seems from reading above that you've already checked this?

> Does a user have to be a member of a pulseaudio group for udev to work?

No, there shoudl not be any need for any specific group membership to
work. In fact being a member of the "audio" group on a multi user system
can actually break things (because the group membership overrides the
ACLs when switching users.
