Bug Description

Pulseaudio fails to detect card, only shows "dummy output", anyway alsa recognizes it well.
I tried restarting pulseaudio with
sudo killall pulseaudio
pulseaudio -k
and it works, but its annoing to type this command every time i restart the computer, i need a real solution.
I thought the problem was in a conflicting starting app, but i have only two cloud clients that never before give me this problem (dropox and mega), and the pulseaudio log didnt give me any useful info, so i dont know what to do now, please help

Hey i figured out it was muroard taking over /dev/snd/*, i think it has a wrong default configuration, maybe i installer it from a --install-suggests some days ago over vlc or something. Im going to check if i can fix it, for the sake of ocd ;)
