This is still happening for me on Maverick: pulseaudio is consistently the top cpu consuming process. X is not even on the radar.
I find this situation troubling given that the machine is an Intel Core2Duo E6600 at 2.4 GHz. I did set all the cores to performance governor.
Is this bug still getting attention? Should I open a new bug?
Please let me know how I can help get this resolved. If pulseaudio is not capable of consuming less CPU than, say, X, I would also be happy having an option in System Settings telling the system not to use pulseaudio at all.
