I'm having a strange issue, running leafpad from the terminal brings up an permission denied issue in pulseaudio.
$ leafpad note.txt
W: [pulseaudio] core-util.c: Failed to open configuration file '/home/user/.config/pulse//daemon.conf': Permission denied
W: [pulseaudio] daemon-conf.c: Failed to open configuration file: Permission denied
A quick internet search recommends chowning ~/.config/pulse, which fixes the issue temporarily.
How can I determine the underlying issue and permanently stop it from happening?
