Comment:
I'm reopening the ticket for you, but you probably ought to be opening a
new ticket for this issue. It is indeed related but apparently due to
another issue:
{{{
Dynamic session lookup supported but failed: Unable to find launchd socket
when setuid
}}}
What does `ls -l /opt/local/bin/pulseaudio` tell, has it indeed been
installed suid root?
Checking on a Linux box (KaOS, to be sure it uses an up-to-date version) I
note that that's not the case there; the audio daemon runs under my own
UID, without any special permissions. Mac OS is a different beast, but I
wouldn't expect it to require special privileges to play sound, much less
so than on Linux (and even there it's rarely necessary).
