We tried to keep the names consistent in the 75+ modules registered on
Tx. I guess the pulseaudio ones slipped our attention. :-)

Maybe this is because the PO file provided from the modules page is
already msgmerged with the POT?

To test, download the PO file from the PackageKit VCS (this is the one
you're overwriting), msgmerge it and compare it with the one you
received from the modules page.

While I believe clean UIs and things 'just working' are good, in this
case I think we should *increase* the verbosity of our web tools, so
that people can know exactly what's happening. For example, the module
page could detect if the msgmerged file is different from the original
PO file, warn if different, and provide links to both.
