I added some extra logging to the daemon, and it looks like the signal
is not sent. So this is a pulseaudio bug.

Hopefully you already knew this, but the dbus interface in pulseaudio
isn't really suitable for any serious projects. See the disclaimer at
the top of
https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/PulseAudio/Documentation/Developer/Clients/DBus/

Nevertheless, I'll try to fix this bug.
