I've added my user to the audio group, will report back if this works.

In my case, I am the only user on the laptop, but I do take it to work as I don't want to copy my personal music to company hardware, thus I prefer the locking screen not to be disabled.

Logging out and back in didn't work, but started working as soon as I rebooted the system.
