After a quick look at the code, it appears to me that even though we
added rtkit to main, and the daemon now is always started by default,
the lack of the SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK flag means that rtkit is not able to
actually enable RT scheduling for Pulse Audio? If so that seems pretty
broken to me... ( in addition to generating lots of daemon.log noise ).
Note we *could* patch rtkit to not use the flag, however the SCHED_RESET
commit explains that it's purpose is to prevent RT scheduling from
leaking to child processes which could be seen as a security risk ( see
the commit for more details ).
