[SOLVED] Sound works at GDM but once logged in does not

Question

Arch has me stumped.
When my Macbook boots to GDM there is the sound icon and sound works.
Once I log in the sound icon disappears and there is no sound.
If I log back out sound works again at the GDM login screen
My output for pulse audio and pulse audio -v is:

Answer 1

Solved my own problem....
After a day of poking around and thinking about the error message I figured there is a socket is left open or being used somewhere  and pulseaudio does not know how to handle this. I found a socket file in /tmp/.esd-UID/socket that I rm'd. 
Rebooted my laptop and logged into my Gnome desktop and there is now sound.
Furthermore I removed the line in /etc/pulse/default.pa that loads module-esound-protocol and have not ran in to any issues.
