@gjacobse Did you enable the service to make sure it restarts on its own?
In theory yes. but it doesn't seem to be working. And the Fedora commands I find are more than a year old
Wait,you have Unifi on Fedora?
Yes -
Why?

Fedora isn't supported.

Yes -
Didn't know it worked there - last I heard was Ubuntu or Windows is what Unifi Supported.
It works anywhere. But the vendor only supports Ubuntu and Windows.

Fair point.

Since you are using Fedora confirm if SELinux isn't the one causing the issue.

It appears that yes indeed, it could be SELinux. I subsequently found a reference to using
audio2allow

I hate to say it but you might have better stability from future updates and any surprises by disabling SELinux.

Definitely, considering that SELinux is not considered when they are designing it.

$ sestatus SELinux status: disabled
Already was.

Why is this on Fedora? There are zero benefits to this.
Migrate your install to Debian, or even Ubuntu if you hate yourself.

I run Fedora or Windows. I'm not going to get into multi-distros... I have no need or desire.

Then don't use one at all and manage the AP with their app.

That's not very logical. You have "no need or desire" for things to be simple? Saying you have no need or desire, on a thread of issues caused by it, doesn't add up.
It's fine to be passionate about homogenous deployments, but lacking desire makes no sense, and the "need" is to make your life easier.
Ask yourself... what purpose is the "single distro" requirement serving given that it doesn't make things easier, but rather harder?

Nothing wrong with having your go-to distro. But you should have an alternative distro for situations like this.

I definitely wouldn't call this a go-to distro situation since it's pretty much Ubuntu or debian as JB said. This is more the - choose what the vendor supports situation.

It's more an "order of precedence" and you normally take the first one from your list that is considered first class by the app you are trying to deploy.

Umm, Fedora is his go to distro. That has nothing to do with the vendor.
But blindly staying with something like has been stated, is just silly.

I won't sit here and dispute the
right tool for the task
mentality. There is always the 'case' of yes you can do it that way, but it's not recommended. I can use a pair of channel locks to turn a bolt, but likely it'll get chewed up. Yes - it WILL work.. but it's not the RIGHT tool for the task.Anyway - likely will just burn Fedora on a box and load Ubuntu, and determine my reshuffle later... The whole point for some of this was to reduce the PC systems. The only desktop suitable for VM is still rebooting on me,.. so it's slated for a full rebuild / replacement.

If you really wanted it to be setup as a service, take a look here:

or look at this
https://fedora.pkgs.org/28/rpmfusion-nonfree-x86_64/unifi-5.7.23-1.fc28.x86_64.rpm.htmlThose packages often get behind.
