Comment(by murz):

 $ is command prompt, command text that I try is without $ symbol.
 I add string "load-module module-cli-protocol-unix" in my system.pa, after
 that I see the /var/run/pulse/cli socket file (before it absent).
 Also I add the option "allow-module-loading = yes" to daemon.conf

 But after that pacmd don't want to connect too:
 {{{
 PULSE_RUNTIME_PATH=/var/run/pulse sudo -u pulse pacmd
 [sudo] password for murz:
 Home directory /home/murz not ours.
 No PulseAudio daemon running, or not running as session daemon.
 }}}

 I understand that this is security issue, but I need this only for test
 time (I want to understand why a2dp sink can't be created when pulseaudio
 run as system daemon, issue 898), because pactl tool don't have function
 for load module, and several other.

 What else can I try?
