Comment (by tries):
The presense/requirement of the .pulse directory seems to depend on the
pulseaudio version.
* CentOS 6 with pulseaudio 0.9.21 does have these directories
* CentOS 7 with pulseaudio 10.0 does NOT have them (there, things are
located in $HOME/.config/pulse/
However, audio with tor-browser on CentOS 7 works fine, even without any
links/copies of pulseadio related files. I tested 6.0, 7.5, 7.0, 7.5 and
current 8.0 versions of tor-browser - my audio issue with CentOS 6 exists
with all these versions (clean install of tor-browser).
I have to admit, currently I have no idea why my audio did work at all
before...
But my best guess to get around this would be to place a symlink to the
.pulse directory in the real home directory - if this directory should
exists in the users $HOME (similar to what has been done in #9353).
