?? user in group audio -- but only root can play sound

[Gregor Zattler <telegraph@gmx.net>]

Hi there,

since a few days my normal user, which is in group sound, cannot
play sound (aplay works but no sound) while root can.

Any ideas how to debug this?

This is a debian testing system with pulseaudio and mpd running.

/dev$ find |xargs ls -ld|grep audio
crw-rw----+  1 root audio      14,   4 Jan 16 16:32 ./audio
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root             8 Jan 16 16:32 ./char/14:4 -> ../audio
crw-rw----+  1 root audio      14,   3 Jan 16 16:32 ./dsp
crw-rw----+  1 root audio      14,   0 Jan 16 16:32 ./mixer
