Top command give me : Mem: 16304K used, 43792K free, 0K shrd, 0K buff, 
5268K cached
Launching pulseaudio --start (without --system) give me better 
behaviour. Paplay seems working but there is no sound. I just try adding 
load-module module-alsa-sink device=hw:0,0 and set-default-sink 0 in 
etc/pulse/default.pa Also pacmd list-cards give me 0 card(s) 
available.After a few moment pulseaudio is stopped without intervention.
