#662: "Failed to create secure directory" when .pulse is a symlink

I'm on debian x64 using package version 0.9.15-4.1.
I have .pulse as a symlink to local/.pulse (a dir) in my home directory.
'local' is a symlink to /some/abs/path.
When I try to run gnome-volume-control.pulse I get "Failed to create
secure directory" and the process just hangs with no GUI elements popping
up.
Only by doing an strace did I discover what the problem was. The log of
stdout/err is attached. Search for "secure" to find the relevant spot.
