update: fixed the drum sounds in gdm ... seems like it is influenced by a bad .asoundrc/.aroundrc.asoundconf (which points to pulse ... and no pulse server when gdm is at the login screen) ...

removed the .asoundrc / .asoundrc.asoundconf from root's home dir

remove the .asoundrc / .asoundrc.asoundconf from the normal user account... still no startup sound.. but looks like totem still defaults to using pulse correctly ..

P.S. I suggest 'sudo apt-get install paman' and run paman to double check the pulse audio clients and "SEE" totem (and who-ever) connected to the pulseaudio server natively.

so that said... any alsa aware application will go direct without 'asoundconf set-pulse' (the files that creates)... running that creates the files and (in theory) any alsa application will be re-directed to pulse (without knowning it).

I hope this helps others out!
