I'm not sure what you mean by "trying to find the module-loopback.c
pa__init starting". Do you mean how pa__init() gets called? The modules
are dlopened libraries. When a module is loaded, pa_module_load() in
src/pulsecore/module.c finds the symbol for pa__init and calls the
function.

As for how to use module-loopback in general, the module documentation
can be found here:
