Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/issues/4659
Description
audacity fails to start with the error:
The Audacity IPC server failed to initialize
Steps to Reproduce
Expected behavior
audacity starts
Actual behavior
An 'Audacity Startup Failure' popup with the above error message appears.
Behavior without a profile
Application starts correctly
Additional context
Have not tried using audacity with firejail prior to this so don't know if this is caused by a new version of audacity or not.
Commenting out the 'protocol unix' line from the profile causes the application to start correctly.
Environment

Can you try
protocol unix,inet.@Druco commented on GitHub (Nov 1, 2021):
Yes, that works.
@kmk3 commented on GitHub (Nov 1, 2021):
Out of curiosity, do you know if this also happens with versions before v3.0.0?
@Druco commented on GitHub (Nov 2, 2021):
I'm afraid that I never tried using Firejail on Audacity before now and I don't have an older version available to try now so I don't know if this is new to v3.0.0 or not.
