if media-sound/pulseaudio is compiled with USE="-avahi", padevchooser gives this error: checking for GUILIBS... yes checking for PULSE... configure: error: Package requirements ( libpulse >= 0.9.2 libpulse-browse >= 0.9.2 libpulse-mainloop-glib >= 0.9.2 ) were not met: No package 'libpulse-browse' found Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables PULSE_CFLAGS and PULSE_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details. !!!

The ebuild should check if pulseaudio is compiled with useflag avahi enabled and warn the user properly. With avahi-daemon not running, padevchooser doesn't start at all (at least here on my box), so I think it would be a good idea to advise the user that avahi-daemon needs to be running.
Thanks for reporting, I've added a built_with_use check in the ebuild. For the problem of the program not starting if avahi-daemon is not running, I would suggest you to report it upstream, but you might want to take a look to 0.9.3 before anyway.
