> 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.
