1:12.2-2ubuntu3.1 is working fine and not creating regressions, even if
the bug seems to not happen on every install which makes the fix harder
to verify the change is right on principle, marking as verified

Title:
  pulseaudio should not load module-x11-bell in gnome-shell

Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in pulseaudio source package in Disco:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  * Impact
  The package force load a bell sound which can conflicts with the user 
configuration

  * Test case
  - Enable a login sound in session
  - Login into a GNOME/Ubuntu session
  -> the configured sound should be played

  * Regression potential
  Try other desktop environments to make sure their login sound behaviour isn't 
changed, it shouldn't since the customization dropped was specific to the 
Ubuntu sound theme

  -------------------

  The package `pulseaudio` installs a startup script in 
`/etc/xdg/autostart/pulseaudio.desktop`,
  which itself runs `/usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-x11`,
  which loads a number of x11 related modules in `pulseaudio`.

  One of these modules is `module-x11-bell`,
  which makes `pulseaudio` play a sound each time a system bell is emitted
  (usually by terminal applications, such as bash or vim).

  This is redundant with gnome-shell, which is also able to handle the system 
bell
  (through the gsetting key `org.gnome.desktop.sound event-sounds`).

  The gnome system bell is directly configurable by the user (Settings > Sound),
  so it should be preferred over pulseaudio's own system bell.

  I suggest to patch the `/usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-x11`,
  to avoid loading `start-pulseaudio-x11` if it detects it is running in Gnome 
Shell
  (e.g. if GNOME_SHELL_SESSION_MODE is set).
