If you're using %desktop-services, they already contain a pulseaudio
service. You should use modify-services to change the configuration,
something like this should work:
(modify-services %desktop-services
(pulseaudio-service-type config =>
(pulseaudio-configuration
(inherit config)
(script-file "/home/nathan/.config/pulse/default.pa"))))
Note that the file-append you've suggested would result in a path like
/gnu/store/...-pulseaudio/home/nathan/.config/pulse/default.pa
