[yocto] Starting Pulseaudio automatically

I’ve got an X11 application which uses Pulseaudio. Everything works as expected when built under “daisy” (Pulseaudio 5), but the same system built under “jethro” (Pulseaudio 6) fails as Pulseaudio doesn’t start automatically.

It looks like this is down to a difference in start-pulseaudio-x11. The following is present in “daisy”:

   pulseaudio --start

but this isn’t there in “jethro”. Adding this line makes Pulseaudio start as expected, allowing the application to run.

Why was this removed in Pulseaudio 6? Is it supposed to be started another way?
