when I do

$ ls /dev/dsp

I get

crw-rw----    1 root     audio     14,    3 Jul  5  2000 /dev/dsp

but when I want to play a Quiktime movie (shit happens...) with 
gxamin, I get the following error:

Can't Open /dev/dsp device

How should I set the permissions on /dev/dsp then?

I am a member of the following groups:

users, disk and audio

(The soundcard I have installed is a SoundBlaster 128PCI, module es1370.o)

Any help is welcome and appriciated,

Wouter Eerdekens
