Since I didn't want to deal with a bunch of libs other than pulse audio being upgraded, I downloaded the Jaunty source for 0.9.14, and built my own packages. I don't know how to get them into a PPA, but I did put them up here:

http://testing.pyen.com/~ajani/pa/

(Sorry, it's not an APT source, either)

I looked up the pulseaudio packages installed on my system with:
dpkg -l '*pulse*' | grep '^ii'

and then I installed only the packages I already had:

sudo dpkg -i libpulse-browse0_0.9.14-0ubuntu7_i386.deb libpulse-mainloop-glib0_0.9.14-0ubuntu7_i386.deb libpulse0_0.9.14-0ubuntu7_i386.deb libpulsecore9_0.9.14-0ubuntu7_i386.deb pulseaudio_0.9.14-0ubuntu7_i386.deb pulseaudio-esound-compat_0.9.14-0ubuntu7_i386.deb pulseaudio-module-gconf_0.9.14-0ubuntu7_i386.deb pulseaudio-module-hal_0.9.14-0ubuntu7_i386.deb pulseaudio-module-x11_0.9.14-0ubuntu7_i386.deb pulseaudio-module-zeroconf_0.9.14-0ubuntu7_i386.deb pulseaudio-utils_0.9.14-0ubuntu7_i386.deb

And I found that it didn't uninstall libpulsecore5, so I removed that:

sudo dpkg --remove libpulsecore5

and then if you log out and log back in (or just reboot), you should be running pulse audio 0.9.14.

It does look like it solved the problem for me (I would get the hang every time I suspended and then resumed my laptop if I accidentally left a sound related application open, and I was able to just suspend and resume while playing audio from banshee, and I didn't have any problems)

Hopefully it will continue to work, and it will make it into intrepid.
