'Twas brillig, and Ng Oon-Ee at 23/04/09 11:02 did gyre and gimble:
To add-on to the above topic.
I've mentioned earlier in my initial mail that my /tmp folder contains
two different pulse-XXXX directories. My googling has revealed that it
seems the XXXX should be my username, but as far as I've observed, that
does not seem to be the case in my install, could that be the source of
the problem?
No, the information you found is outdated. Using a username can lead to
other users doing a kind of DoS (Denial of Sound!) attack by creating a
file owned by themselves with your username in it.
