But I'm getting this when I try to *start* the user-configured server on that machine, via e.g. start-pulseaudio-x11! With this in place, how are you supposed to start PA at all? (I'm not even entirely clear what a 'user-configured server' is. A server that the user has configured? A server meant to run under the user's privileges, as opposed to a systemwide PA? Something else?)
