I had a situation at one point where when I was testing I was running the backend service interactivly as myself, and that created recordings with my user permissions, and when I run the backend as a service it could read/play the files, but could not detete them. Updating persmissions and ownership of the files resolved the issue.
Just another way that this could happend.
