Public bug reported:
When using the command "alsactl store 0" to store the details of a sound
card, errors are received if used with sudo, informing the user that
"/home/(whoever) not ours" - the command also fails if used without
sudo, giving the error "alsactl: save_state:1547: Cannot open
/var/lib/alsa/asound.state for writing: Permission denied"
This is only the default response since oneiric, the feature concerned
worked well in Natty and prior to this, I have not seen this response
from alsactl.
All the users I've seen so far (myself included) have all been on 11.10
I have confirmed this error with a user at #kubuntu-devel on freenode,
who has also tried this.
The relevant package version is: alsactl version 1.0.24.2
