Here's my version of this file anyway. #%PAM-1.0 auth sufficient pam_rootok.so # Uncomment the following line to implicitly trust users in the "wheel" group. #auth sufficient pam_wheel.so trust use_uid # Uncomment the following line to require a user to be in the "wheel" group. #auth required pam_wheel.so use_uid auth required pam_unix.so account required pam_unix.so session required pam_unix.so Also, my .xinitrc doesn't contain anything related to PAM, permissions or anything like that. I don't know why any of that would be needed. The only pam related changes I made were in /etc/security/limits.conf and I added my user to the audio group, but that's normal procedure. Now that I read https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Realtime_for_Users I start to wonder myself.. maybe I made some change a couple of years ago that makes it work and I simply forgot about it. No idea whether pam is running or whatever it does, it stayed out of my way and jack works as expected. A quick search led me to ... the pam manpage, which kind of suggests that login uses pam: http://linux.die.net/man/8/pam.d Did I miss something?
