Description
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.
