I found it more annoying to uninstall pulseaudio than difficult. And
it's fair to say I was already annoyed, so there has also been a
cathartic element to it.

Basically, using whatever package manager was appropriate to the
distribution, I searched and removed pulse*, remembering that some
packages that list pulseaudio as a dependency are in fact
meta-packages that simply exist to bring in all associated packages
and which can in fact be removed once you have a functioning
installation (though you may find you want to mark other desired
packages as manually selected).
