If I log in as my user, who setup KUbuntu on my box, I have sound and
it works fine in all apps.
But, I have users for my wife and son. They log in and get a message
saying something like "can't use audio. /dev/dsp (Permission
Denied)". I look at /dev/dsp and it is RW for Root and Audio.
So, I add them to the group Audio. But, they still get the problem.
I read some posts on the web, but none specifically had this error.
Should I just change the permisison to RW for everyone on /dev/dsp? I
figured adding them to the group Audio would have done the trick.
Anyone else have this problem?
