You're close here. If you look through this list:

> PACKAGES =+ "libpulsecore libpulsecommon libpulsedsp libpulse
> libpulse-simple libpulse-browse libpulse-mainloop-glib \
>              pulseaudio-server pulseaudio-misc
> pulseaudio-gconf-helper"

you can then change IMAGE_INSTALL to include the pieces you want, e.g:

IMAGE_INSTALL += "pulseaudio-server"
