Best bet for the heating pipe is firestop putty. You can pack it with steel wool (if it's a steel or iron pipe) or copper cleaning pads (if copper) if you need to fill up space before sealing the pipe to the wall with putty.
If you have substantial openings between the plaster and the switch and outlet boxes, use expanding foam, and then caulk around the remaining crack with a non hardening caulk.
Use the same caulk for the baseboards and cracks at the edges of wall and ceiling.
Mass loaded vinyl could be a part of the "next step" of beefing up the mass and decoupling of the present wall, but as you say it is expensive. You would need it floor to ceiling for the length of the wall, and securing and covering it would be a construction project.
