​No:​
$ pulseaudio -k
E: [pulseaudio] main.c: Failed to kill daemon: No such process

​But the daemon is running as me:
$ ps aux | grep pulseaudio
​user
       2572  0.0  0.0 490632 10540 ?        Sl   14:55   0:00 /nix/store/
a72z0gasiv1145ygyijzgdra921pkk60-pulseaudio-10.0/bin/pulseaudio --start
--log-target=syslog
​user
       2604  0.0  0.0 118264  5756 ?        S    14:55   0:00 /nix/store/

​I killed it by hand:
​$ sudo kill 2572 2604
$ mpv foobar.mp3  # plays
$ pavucontrol  # Works!

Going to try a reboot to see if it still works... Back to the previous
behavior until I kill them then start up something that uses pulseaudio.

Making progress. Thanks David.
