[SOLVED] Cinnamon 2.0.6-2 crashes with pulseaudio-4.0.5

Question

Hello
After yesterdays cinnamon update issue have been solved I've proceeded with full system update only to find Cinnamon crashing again, though error comes from different package this time.
After starting X with startx Cinnamon opens up, then pops message like "Cinnamon has crashed and is running in fallback mode, do you want to restart?" if I restart same thing happens if I don't environment hangs up.
I have concluded that culprit is libpulse-4.0.5 and/or pulseaudio-4.0.5 since one cant be installed without other there is no way telling witch it is - I've everything else up to date except for these 2 packages and everything is working.
here is jurnalctl -b
