I believe you got it to work. However, you "force fixed" it and are hiding the underlying problem. When you login the acls of the devices listed in /dev/snd should be changed to something along the lines of: # file: hwC0D0 # owner: root # group: audio user::rw- user:egreshko:rw- group::rw- mask::rw- other::--- In your case that is not happening. So, you've force fixed it by joining the "audio" group as all the devices are in the "audio" group. This could also point to other issues on your system where other acls aren't getting properly modified on login. In any case, it is *not* a "requirement" as you've stated. It is a "kludge" to get around another problem. -- Do not condemn the judgment of another because it differs from your own.
