Not without recompiling PulseAudio, the relevant code is in
src/pulsecore/protocol_native.c, function command_auth:
#ifdef HAVE_CREDS
if (do_shm) {
/* Only enable SHM if both sides are owned by the same
* user. This is a security measure because otherwise data
* private to the user might leak. */
const pa_creds *creds;
if (!(creds = pa_pdispatch_creds(pd)) || getuid() != creds->uid)
do_shm = false;
}
#endif
Maybe there's more stuff that needs to be changed as well, I don't know.
