Hi Pablo,

I'm just a user like you, so I don't know the internals of xfce4-session and
how hard it would be to code what you're asking for. I merely wrote the comment
to propose Linux users landing here a workaround. There are also more direct
solutions like Maximilien's.

I don't think this feature should be written "critical" at all. Supporting
people who install incompatible services but don't want to work around the
incompatibility themselves should be enhancement-grade, in my opinion.

Though if you're interested in trying to fix it yourself, you should start
here:
http://standards.freedesktop.org/autostart-spec/autostart-spec-latest.html and
see if you can create some extra XFCE-only keys that give ordering and/or
dependencies to service files. Then you can setup the proper service files to
make your PulseAudio start first, and email all the upstream developers to add
your key to their service files.
