This is probably my biggest gripe with Ubuntu at this point. I switched all my home machines to Ubuntu, and my wife has been mostly okay with it, but she's had a few gripes...the fact that sound wasn't working for her was a big one. My workaround has been to make sure that her account is logged in first so that it can grab the sound device, then I can log myself in...but it's a true pita that I can't get any sound for my user as well. I really don't care so much about the "sound keeps playing even when user not active" vs "sound only plays for currently active user" (although I think it should be configurable), but "sound only works for one user period" is a non-starter.
