Hello,
the following is a discussion from the Debian bugtracking system regarding
Debian Bug#751704 (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=751704).

bug-par...@gnu.org.
Kind regards,
Karsten

(Please let me know if there's a better venue for collecting feedback for this

Indeed, and since you were updating the manual already I thought it
might make sense to batch everything together.

Adding the first user to group audio shouldn't break any ACL management
that is done by systemd-logind.
logind hide/ show the audio device from the user trough the ACL.
The audio group will always show all audio devices.
I think these two settings are conflicting.

that is done by systemd-logind.
It just means, the first user *always* has access to the audio device,
no matter if his session is marked active for he is logged in locally.
So he get's access even when e.g. logged in remotel

Hi,
IMO aptitude is no longer the recommended package management tool.
AFAIK the release-notes for example now recommend apt-get (for dist-upgrades
at least).
Probably the following patch should be applied.
