I'm using SELinux in permissive mode, and don't see any errors
in /var/log/messages relating to SELinux errors (some avc denied).
Then it is likely a security policy (PAM?) refusing to grant or
limiting memory access. That's not to say that Pulse shouldn't be
doing a better job of trapping the error- it should.
In any case, I have seen that exact error on my own boxes, and it was
due to being refused access to shared mem. Not definitive in your
case, just likely.
