I: [pulseaudio] main.c: Found user 'pulse' (UID 109) and group 'pulse' (GID 112). W: [pulseaudio] main.c: Home directory of user 'pulse' is not '/var/run/pulse', ignoring. .. IMHO the HOME of user pulse should be /var/lib/pulse and not /var/lib/pulseaudio Q: What about setting /usr/bin/pulseaudio setgid audio as the devices are group audio Even KDE users can not use pulseaudio ... now with
chown root:audio /usr/bin/pulseaudio
chmod 2755 /usr/bin/pulseaudio
it works as it should. Maybe a service daemon pulseaudio running as user pulse which the other pulseaudio clients could use would be an other option.
Please check getfacl /dev/snd/* Here is what I see for all files there: # owner: root # group: audio user::rw- user:sbrabec:rw- group::rw- mask::rw- other::--- ACL permission should be set for the user logged to a local session. It was handled by ConsoleKit in past. I don't know implementation details in 12.3, but I guess that need interaction with polkit. Created attachment 530254 [details]
getfacl /dev/snd/*
The output of
sudo getfacl /dev/snd/*
Indeed there was no polkit running compare with bnc#809821 and bnc#809807 Permissions in /dev/snd now look correctly. Does it work now if you revert SGID of /usr/bin/pulseaudio and restart pulseaudio daemon (e. g. re-login)? If it works now, it is probably a consequence of with bug 809821 or bug 809807. Indeed this does work:
/home/werner> ll /usr/bin/pulseaudio
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root audio 88280 Feb 14 22:19 /usr/bin/pulseaudio
/home/werner> grep audio /etc/group
audio:x:17:pulse
/home/werner> pacmd list-sinks | grep name:
name: <alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo>
/home/werner> paplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/test.wav
