no sound, alsamixer under unprivileged user does not work
 
Hello,

Code:


user$ lspci -v | grep -i audio
00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 03)

user1$ aplay -l
aplay: device_list:217: no soundcards found...

user$ alsamixer
alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory


BUT


under root user
user1# aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: I82801DBICH4 [Intel 82801DB-ICH4], device 0: Intel ICH [Intel 82801DB-ICH4]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: I82801DBICH4 [Intel 82801DB-ICH4], device 4: Intel ICH - IEC958 [Intel 82801DB-ICH4 - IEC958]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

user# alsamixer #### is working too

under root user (GNOME env) sound is working, unprivileged user does not have sound at all

I got some info concerning the permitions issue under /dev/snd directory
after changing:
Code:

user1# chmod 777 /dev/snd/*

user$ alsa -l ##### unprivileged user
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: I82801DBICH4 [Intel 82801DB-ICH4], device 0: Intel ICH [Intel 82801DB-ICH4]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: I82801DBICH4 [Intel 82801DB-ICH4], device 4: Intel ICH - IEC958 [Intel 82801DB-ICH4 - IEC958]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

But still NO SOUND under UNPRIVILEGED USER
