Public bug reported:

Starting FFADO 2.4.4 from the menu does not list a device and reports in
the GUI the following error:

Somehow the connection to the dbus-service of FFADE couldn't be
established.

and had the log message:

logginghandler: Could not communicate with the FFADO DBus service...

When starting FFADO from the command line with

sudo ffado-mixer-qt4

no error is reported and the sound device is listed and usable.

Please, fix that the default/normal user that can change sound settings
can also use FFADO directly when launching it from the menu.

** Affects: libffado (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Confirmed
