Turns out the necessary modules are already loaded. Apparantly it is a
permission problem. The root user can play sound. Normal user is not
capable and is denied access to the sound device. I checked the
permissions on various sound devices and they are the same as those on a
machine where it does work!
Does anybody know why root can use sound and normal user not?
