If you still have the system RPM for pulseaudio installed, I would strongly recommend using a different prefix. You should be able to use your home directory fine: /bootstrap.sh --prefix=$HOME/pulsegit && make -j3 && make install Even then, pulse still insists on writing a policy kit file in a root only location.. I generally hack the configure script for this.... You'd run the built pulse via $HOME/pulsegit/bin/pulseaudio binary not just "pulseaudio".
