The underlying issue is that ALSA buffer handling was causing PA to spin.
Those patches go quite some ways toward addressing that cause.

In other words, multiple symptoms are caused by the same root culprit.

I spoke too soon in regards to "no-cpu-limit = yes" fixing the issue.
Its not fixed and is still occurring on my system. Its no longer
receiving SIGXCPU signals, but it does still get a SIGKILL, the source
of which I am still unsure of.

Daniel T Chen: How can you be sure its a bi-product of bug #345627 ?
The description of that bug sounds nothing like what I am experiencing.
The audio output is totally fine on my system (no crackles or pops).
Perhaps you posted the wrong bug link?

Bug #366708 seems like it could be the same, thought that could just be
a PulseAudio crash. In this case, its not crashing, its getting killed.
