Ok. Unfortunately we're back to square one.
This is definately the problem after all:

This should normally be:
> open("/home/bbb/.pulse//default.pa", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 ENOENT (No
> such file or directory)
The problem is that pulseaudio only continues looking for default.pa files
if the ones it tries don't exist. Normally it looks for ~/.pulse/default.pa
and if that doesn't exist, then it tries /etc/pulse/default.pa, which is
shipped with the debian packages. If one of the files *does* exist, but it
can't open it, then it aborts.
So the question is, why is your system returning "Permission denied" instead
of "No such file or directory" if the file really doesn't exist?
I really suspect this has something to do with SELinux, but I really don't
know much about it, so I'm just guessing.
