Brief summary
By default the built Ubuntu template doesn't have working sound. This appears to be due to module-vchan-sink.so being placed in /lib/pulse-13.99/modules by the package pulseaudio-qubes rather than /lib/pulse-13.99.1/modules with the rest of the pulseaudio modules. Moving it to /lib/pulse-13.99.1/modules in the template fixes the problem and audio then works.
I have noticed that even after moving the file, rarely pulseaudio still crashes on startup. Manually starting with pulseaudio --start -n --file=/etc/pulse/qubes-default.pa --exit-idle-time=-1 does fix audio though.
