Ok, so you don't know what "~" means? It's an abbreviation for the home directory. If your username is "phils", then "~/.config/pulse/" is expanded to "/home/phils/.config/pulse/".

Ok, you're running pulseaudio in the system mode. I had a look at how LibreELEC configures PulseAudio, and it seems to use systemd to start it, so run "systemctl stop pulseaudio" as root. Then run "pulseaudio --system -vv" as root and continue according to my earlier instructions to get the log.
I'm not sure this is a PulseAudio issue, though. LibreELEC seems to disable PulseAudio's ALSA functionality, so I would expect that on LibreELEC you're not supposed to use PulseAudio at all to play to HDMI. Maybe PulseAudio is used only for bluetooth output.
Sorry for the delay in replying...
