I had already added the normal user as member of group 'audio' but still
it does not work...fyi, lsmod does show the soundcard mentioned in
/etc/modprobe.d/sound but lspci doesn't. Is there anything else i need to
do to get sound working?
Another point: alsa shows me two cards:
hda-intel                        Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/
legacy                           Probe legacy ISA (non-PnP) chips

I have selected the first one...is there anyway i can configure to use
both, say, one for skype or gtalk and another one for music, movies etc?
alsa seems to pick up only one for configuration.

Thanks and Regards,
Arvind
