The slackbuild that sourcery pulls builds with these users and group settings.
./configure \
--prefix=/usr \
--libdir=/usr/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX} \
--sysconfdir=/etc \
--localstatedir=/var \
--mandir=/usr/man \
--disable-tcpwrap \
--enable-orc=${ORC:-"no"} \
--disable-static \
--disable-hal --disable-hal-compat \
--disable-solaris \
--disable-waveout \
--with-system-user=pulse \
--with-system-group=pulse \

--with-access-group=audio \
--build=$ARCH-slackware-linux
Also, prior to the configuring and make, the scrip checks to see if the pulse user and group is exist and exits if they don't

But they're not required to build the package. These accounts are runtime dependencies only.
