Wouldn't it be better than to have the line look like this? #load-module module-alsa-sink <card-details> > load. Is this message shown only once, or repeatedly? Does the log say > afterwards: Only once. > [pulseaudio] main.c: Module load failed. > [pulseaudio] main.c: Failed to initialize daemon. Yes, it did. > What DE/WM are you using?

Since then I found the problem, a misconfigured default sink in client.conf. I don't remember editing this file at all, but maybe that was an old config from back when.
