Is the socket file on a filesystem which does not support file ownerships? E.g. 
a CIFS/SMB mount or a FAT/NTFS filesystem?

The socket file is stored in $TMPDIR, which is usually /tmp.
Can you post the contents of Help->Debug Messages of a running Geany instance?
Also post the output of :
```
stat -l ~/.config/geany/*socket*
stat `realpath ~/.config/geany/*socket*`
```
