I don't user either but this looks like a simple permission problem. By
default /dev/dsp is is owned by root with group audio.  So your user
must be in the audio group.  'adduser <user> audio' should get you past
the above problem.  You might have to restart X to get the group
noticed, use the 'id' command to check that the current shell knows you
are in the audio group.
