It does, and the right way would be to add a fallback string or
something, so the issue is fixed for every other platform out there.
I'm not even sure if this should be fixed in pulseaudio itself, but at

using PULSE_SERVER.

Sounds like a good idea, but I'm not even sure what that string is
used for - apart from the visible entry in apps like pavucontrol.
