Thanks. It appears this isn't the problem I thought it was.

Instead it sounds like pulseaudio is opening the audio device(s) exclusively and can't share them between sessions.

I'm not sure but I suspect a shared pulseaudio daemon is possible and might avoid that problem. It looks like you can enable:

 daemonize = yes

in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf

But now I am guessing.
