I hope it's okay if I CC the response to the mailing list.

Did you log out and back in after adding 'Container Administration'?

You can double check if you have the Container Administration group by
looking for 'docker' listed in the command here:

 $ id

When logged in as the same account (not root) via SSH, can you run
docker commansd do you get a failure there too?

 $ docker ps

What does the following command output:

 $ ls -l /var/run/docker.sock

Hope that helps.
