Pulseaudio ownership problem

Hello,

I have the regular problem that /var/run/1000/pulseaudio belongs to root. 1000 is my user id and naturally the directory belongs to me. Now for example I play some files with mpv, and then after playing a few files, it suddenly cannot play the others anymore because it has not the permission to access that directory. I then do chown ypnos /var/run/1000/pulseaudio and it works again (so the daemon isn't even restarted).

Anybody have a clue how this happens?

I have this problem since months!
