I run the machines with Selinux disabled.

The socket is in /run/user/MYuid/pulse, the permissions are such that
only MYuid has access to that directory and lower.
I tried to find out where that directory was made but I couldn't find any
clue. I have been looking in all tmpfiles.d directories, no luck.
Changeing the permissions by hand was nsuccessful, the next call to
pulseaudio immediately reversed that action.
Any suggestions?
