I have systemd-sysv installed and there is nothing special. It can happen
while using vlc, youtube, even without using the machine.

It seems a permission issue, according to the ls command
​.​


*ls -la /run/user/1000*

drwx------ 6 adrian adrian 120 dic 11 11:30 .
drwxr-xr-x 3 root   root    60 dic 11 11:58 ..
drwx------ 2 adrian adrian  60 dic 11 11:28 dconf
dr-x------ 2 adrian adrian   0 dic 11 11:30 gvfs
drwx------ 2 adrian adrian  80 dic 11 11:27 pulse
drwxr-xr-x 2 adrian adrian  80 dic 11 11:28 systemd

*ls -la /run/user/1000/pulse*

drwx------ 2 adrian adrian  80 dic 11 11:27 .
drwx------ 6 adrian adrian 120 dic 11 11:30 ..
srwxrwxrwx 1 adrian adrian   0 dic 11 11:27 native
