Bug description:
I'm experiencing this problem with Ubuntu Saucy. Some times, when I start a
media player (I use Musique), it freezes, as it finds that it cannot write into
/run/user/$ID/pulse.
If I change the owner of that directory to me, the media player starts as
usual and is able to play music.
I've never had this problem with previous versions of Ubuntu.
Someone says that running PulseAudio with the -D argument changes the owner
of that directory, but I didn't try.
This is before manually changing the owner of that directory:
$ musique
Failed to create secure directory (/run/user/1000/pulse): Permission denied+
... # it doesn't crash, it keeps waiting
