I: main.c: PolicyKit refuses acquire-high-priority privilige.
I: main.c: Called SUID root and real-time/high-priority scheduling was 
requested in the configuration. However, we lack the necessary priviliges:
I: main.c: We are not in group 'pulse-rt' and PolicyKit refuse to grant us 
priviliges. Dropping SUID again.
I: main.c: For enabling real-time scheduling please acquire the appropriate 
PolicyKit priviliges, or become a member of 'pulse-rt', or increase the 
RLIMIT_NICE/RLIMIT_RTPRIO resource limits for this user.
I: main.c: Note that real-time/high-priority scheduling is NOT normally 
required. If you experience crackling or other sound anomalies, consider one or 
more of the above solutions.
I: main.c: High-priority scheduling enabled in configuration but now allowed by 
policy. Disabling forcibly.

I: main.c: daemon startup successful.

I'm under the assumption that the problems regarding not being root
would not apply when pulseaudio is started at boot. Is that correct?

I am still having this problem. Randomly, but around every 5 minutes, my
audio will completely stop playing for a few seconds and then come back
on. The music, video, flash, or whatever else will continue operating,
and when the sound starts again it doesn't start where it left off, it
is as if it was just muted for a few seconds. Also, the sound is still
randomly stopping altogether (albeit not in VLC, only in Flash and
totem) and I still have to do the killall and restart pulseaudio at
least once a day. I have been hoping with all the updates I've seen
since Intrepid was released that this problem would be fixed, but it
hasn't been. This is marked as a likely-dupe, but I'm not sure about
that. There have been others with similar problems, but their issues
seem to have been fixed when the race condition was rectified. My issue
was not.

Does anyone have any ideas on how I can further troubleshoot this or
gather more information to help this get fixed? Does anyone know where
the logs are stored for the Adobe Flash plugin? Maybe they would contain
some information. I'm going to restart and check the system logs to see
if I can discern anything from that. I'll post the pertinent info if I
find any. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. It's really annoying
to have to close my browser and restart pulseaudio every time I want to
visit YouTube.
