Yes, I'm 99% sure it is. I haven't bisected my problem all the way,
but I've bisected away all the sound changes (and as mentioned, doing
a 'cat' to /dev/audio works). And yes, the fanotify changes are right
in the middle of my bisect.

So I suspect it's not sound that is broken at all, but pulseaudio that
got broken by the fanotify changes.

Eric - over to you.
