When I do the cli command; You only need ot use the users/groups if you are using a system wide daemon (whereby pulse-access group is needed for any user that wants to connect to that daemon and the pulse user is needed (well recommended) to actually run that system instance) or if you are using an older system which does not have policykit support. Policykit provides a standard way to give specific users running specific apps permission to do specific things that require elevated privileges and thus replaces the pulse-rt group.
