systemd definition for pulseaudio in system-mode (example for archlinux). The pulseaudio developers explicitly recommend to NOT run pulseaudo system-mode!
# systemd service spec for pulseaudio running in system mode -- not recommended though!
# on arch, put it under /etc/systemd/system/pulseaudio.service
# start with: systemctl start pulseaudio.service
# enable on boot: systemctl enable pulseaudio.service
