I'm getting sound, the OSS driver in Audacious works, but Pulse doesn't
seem to work. I get the following in /var/log/messages during startup:
> Aug 5 11:53:01 joss pulseaudio[2193]: polkit.c: Cannot set UID on

My own user (hughc) is a member of 'pulse-rt'. I'm not sure what it is
complaining about here.
