it seems that the issue of not being able to ping from a normal user account.

The error message

ping: socktype: SOCK_RAW

followed by

ping: socket: Operation not permitted

indicates that the user does not have the necessary permissions to use the ping command.

The error message

ping: => missing cap_net_raw+p capability or setuid?

suggests that the user needs to have the cap_net_raw capability or

setuid permission

to use the ping command.

The user can add the cap_net_raw capability to their account using the following command:

sudo setcap cap_net_raw+ep /bin/ping

P.S.

You're not sending an ICMP echo request, most likely (check "ip a" at the time) you don't have a lease but only the IPv6 link local address.
