And Russ Gilman-Hunt <russ@cowboyz.com> gave word to the following
thoughts:

RG>Any clues?

Are you (as a 'normal user') actually having permissions to access the
audio devices on your system? Consider checking those things at least for
/dev/dsp. Check if your normal user is member of a group called "audio" (or
maybe "sound", on some distros?) as well.
Bye,
Kris
