Do I need to manually re-add pulse groups and users (pulse-rt)? I've noticed that in the past the system had some groups/users related to Pulseaudio and I had to add myself to the group(s). They are no longer there. When I do the cli command; pulseaudio --version I get; I: caps.c: Limited capabilities successfully to CAP_SYS_NICE. I: caps.c: Dropping root priviliges. I: caps.c: Limited capabilities successfully to CAP_SYS_NICE. N: main.c: Called SUID root and real-time/high-priority scheduling was requested in the configuration. However, we lack the necessary priviliges: N: main.c: We are not in group 'pulse-rt' and PolicyKit refuse to grant us priviliges. Dropping SUID again. N: main.c: For enabling real-time scheduling please acquire the appropriate PolicyKit priviliges, or become a member of 'pulse-rt', or increase the RLIMIT_NICE/RLIMIT_RTPRIO resource limits for this user. W: main.c: High-priority scheduling enabled in configuration but not allowed by policy. pulseaudio 0.9.13 Again TIA Scott
