[ubuntu] Xfce4-power-manager not privileged to suspend/hibernate (minimal 12.04)

Hi,

I'm in a very satisfying process of building my very on openbox based Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, starting from a minimal CD. However, I can't get suspend/hibernate options to work in the power manager. Suspending works for sure because when I try
Code:

sudo pm-suspend
it suspends my machine no problem at all. It won't work without sudo, so I presume it's all about granting access to that feature. How do I do that?

P.S. After installation I had no audio, and the solution was to edit /etc/group file and add my username to audio group. Maybe I can edit something there?

By the way, here's my ~/.config/openbox/autostart file
Code:

tint2 &
wicd-client --tray &
xfce4-power-manager &
xfce4-notifyd &

Maybe I'm missing some authentication daemon? However, WPA encrypted wi-fi works flawlessly without entering any passwords (apart from the WPA obviously).

Cheers,
Greg

EDIT: I'm not sure if this thread should go to desktop environments section. Sorry for the inconvenience, should it be moved.
