Also confirming that installing pulseaudio (pulseaudio-esound-compat is not required) fixes the loops

would be nice if it weren't a dependency (alsa works just fine for me; i think of PA only as additional latency / cpu cycles) - or if it needs be, then add it as explicit dependency to these packages (not just to libpulse0 as it stands now).

Sarvatt on IRC also suggested setting /apps/gnome_settings_daemon/plugins/sound/active to no in gconf-editor
that would probably fix the gnome-settings-daemon issue, but not the gnome-volume-control[-applet] one.
