Package: pulseaudio-utils
Version: 0.9.21-4
Severity: normal

apparently, there's no way to leave pacmd w/o killing the pulseaudio
server.
that's rather ridiculous since the idea of pacmd is obviously to
configure a server -- once it it is killed, all settings done in pacmd
are gone again.

it's easy to end up in the pacmd shell by mistake, so there should be
anon-destructive way back.
