The right permissions are set by logind through modifying the ACL. $ getfacl /dev/snd/controlC3 # file: dev/snd/controlC3 # owner: root # group: audio user::rw- user:floris:rw- # This line makes sure I can access the device. group::rw- mask::rw- other::--- So the user is able to control the device. floris
