it's not a bug but the lack of your permission setting. make sure that you have permissions to access to /dev/snd/* files for ALSA, and /dev/mixer* and /dev/dsp* for OSS. in most cases, the files are set to allow owner and audio group only. if so, you have to be a member of audio group. add your login to audio group in /etc/group, and once logout then login again.
