> At least it can't be a bug in PulseAudio, because PulseAudio shouldn't have the permission to create that directory with those permissions, right?
I agree with you, but what else could make it owned by root? Or PA is started as root before the DM is started, and maybe it doesn't remove it after terminating/crashing, or the DM does something nasty... A workaround could be a script runned *after* login and whitelisted in /etc/sudoers.d that checks the permissions of that directory. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1197395 Title: /run/user/$ID/pulse owned by root and not by the user To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1197395/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
