Yeah, I've certainly had to learn a few tricks to debug audio issues on my Linux systems. Last one was a crash when disconnecting Bluetooth headphones, traced to PulseAudio unloading its Bluetooth plugin from code within the plugin. You don't get a backtrace if the crash is from returning into code that doesn't exist anymore. I still haven't figured out why this didn't cause crashes on all systems.
Factors which will have majorly affected people's PulseAudio experience over the years include audio hardware, what software they use with it, system uptime, local RF interference, use of suspend/resume, which patches their distro backported, and the exact stack and heap layout of the process on their system.
