I know this "The pulseaudio system could not be started." message from Windows desktop sessions running as RDP sessions. As if pulseaudio chokes on the RDP audio backend. If I launch pyhoca-gui locally on those systems (sitting in front of $SCREEN, not via RDP), then the pulseaudio subsystem comes up correctly.
