Description Tanu Kaskinen 2013-06-03 09:51:36 UTC

When PulseAudio runs as a part of a session, the "exit-idle-time" value should be ignored, so that PulseAudio doesn't stay running after the session has ended.

I believe the exit-idle-time option exists only to handle the cases where PulseAudio is autospawned outside a proper login session. In those cases exit-idle-time is needed, because otherwise PulseAudio would either run forever or exit immediately after the first client exits, neither of which is good.
