I checked /etc/group on my laptop (freshly installed debian system) and it
was read/write to root , read to group/others.
MY /etc/group was read/write to root, forbidden to group/others.
Yes, the backup-copy (group-) is read/write to root, forbidden to
group/others.
I am sure it was like that.
Beside that it started working after that correction.

Ok, found the problem - kind of.
1. /etc/group was *READ*/write only to root. group/other were totally
forbidden.
Just to verify, are you sure that was /etc/group, or might it have
been /etc/group- (namely its backup copy)? The latter should be 600.
Alsa couldn't read /etc/group and could't check if a user has the
right to
play audio
-> ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:1605:(snd1_pcm_direct_parse_open_conf) The
field
ipc_gid must be a valid group (create group audio)
2. knotify4 was blocking the sound. I renamed it. Done. Now everything
play fine, even 5.1 sorround-sound is fine.
