what about giving more informations?
what about "postconf -n"?
why do you EVERYTIME let us guess?

what permissions/owner was set before?
what auth-backend?

i guess (and i guess THE LAST TIME for you) dovecot?
if it is not dovbecot find out WHAT backend are you using
and read the manual of the software wo creates "private/auth"

postfix is not responsible in any way for sockets of other software

# configure backend for postfix sasl-auth
service auth {
  unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth {
  mode                         = 0660
  user                         = postfix
  group                        = postfix
 }
}
