Public bug reported:

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

If needed:
