I am running gnome on my laptop, and sound is working fine (when I cat something to /dev/dsp I hear it, etc). However sound refuses to integrate with Gnome. `gnome-volume-control` says "Waiting for sound system to respond"

What can I do to fix this? I (re)compiled pulseaudio, but when I run it, I get:
[ricky@R-Laptop ~]$ pulseaudio
I: caps.c: Dropping root privileges.
W: main.c: High-priority scheduling enabled in configuration but not allowed by policy.
E: module-console-kit.c: GetSessionsForUnixUser() call failed: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ExecFailed: Failed to execute program /usr/local/libexec/dbus-daemon-launch-helper: Unknown error: 0
E: module.c: Failed to load module "module-console-kit" (argument: ""): initialization failed.
E: main.c: Module load failed.
E: main.c: Failed to initialize daemon.


I'm at a loss here, because sound itself works, but I would like it to integrate with Gnome.

Thanks.

Do other audio applications, like mplayer, xmms, xine and vlc work?

What version of FreeBSD are you running?

Which sound driver are you using?
