Sorry, I didn't follow this issue. So if this has already been tried
excuse the duplication:

If you are using KDE (which it sounds like) go into artsd config in the
KDE Control Panel and disable Duplex operation (or something very close
to that name)

Personally, I'd try to get it working as a regular user, period. As
being root all the time is "considered a bad thing"(tm).
