This is not a user error, I had the same problem after distribution upgrade
from Intrepid to jaunty. I have the following errors in /var/log/messages right
after booting without starting any other application:
Jan 10 08:19:27 Thermalgy-Ubuntu pulseaudio[3553]: main.c: Called SUID root and
Now this is great, after adding me to the pulse-rt group:
$ sudo usermod -G pulse-rt jean
and verifying that I was in the group:
j...@thermalgy-ubuntu:~$ groups
jean pulse-rt
I rebooted the computer to see if my sound would work again as it did
before the upgrade to Jaunty.
It still does not
I have been able to get audio playback working but not recording by installing
the latest ALSA drivers using this script:

And adding at the end of /etc/modules the line:
snd-hda-intel
And rebooting.

AFAIK rtkit is planned for 10.04 (Lucid). In 9.10 (Karmic) your
pulseaudio daemon can gain high-priority and realtime scheduling by
editing /etc/security/limits.conf. For each desktop user add the
following 2 lines:
$USER - nice -11 # values from -20 upto 19 allowed
$USER - rtprio
...and here ~/.pulse/daemon.conf as attachment (without the ugly line
breaks).

The solution with pulse-rt group does not work in Karmic anymore as
there is no such group. Reopening.

As far as I know this bug isn't valid any more.
Pulseaudio 0.9.18 now depends on RealtimeKit, for more information please

In response to the above post by Chris Coulson on 2008-10-30:
The command syntax is: usermod -a -G group1,group2,group3 username
Where username is the user you want to modify and group1 and group2 are
the new groups you want that user to join. Running the command without
the -a argument will
dismissing this as User error is hardly a valid solution. A upgrade from an
old ubuntu version (can't remember which one) left me with exactly the same
situation as the original reporter. pulseaudio was installed and my main user
had not been added to the -rt group.
At the very minimum, should
Andreas - the upgrade should not add your user to the pulse-rt group
anyway, as users are not added to this group on a default install
either. In response to your earlier question about using Policykit - I
think this is already the case in Jaunty.
So Daniel is correct to close this bug report, as

Instead of using a special group, shouldn't this use a policykit config?

You didn't add your user to pulse-rt. You should do:
sudo usermod -G pulse-rt amit
This type of question really should go in the forums or support tracker
though

I added the user to the pulse-rt group by the following--
sudo useradd -G pulse-rt amit
I got the following output--
useradd: user amit exists
Then I restarted pulseaudio by--
pulseaudio --start -vvv
But hen I got the following, stating that real time scheduling is not possible--
I: caps.c:
You need to add your user to the 'pulse-rt' group in order to use real
time scheduling. Could you please try that and have another go.
Thanks

Okay, I have done what you have suggested and it looks better now.
$ pulseaudio --start -vvv
D: main.c: Started as real root: no, suid root: yes
I: main.c: We're in the group 'pulse-rt', allowing high-priority scheduling.
