Hi guys,
I have what seams like a interesting problem. I have written an ALSA app to record wav files and it runs while I am logged in an terminal as the logged in Gnome user or root. But when I su to another user, it can't find the default sound card.
I am running FC6. I tried changing own of /dev/dsp to 'nobody', that did not work.
Anyone know of this problem and a fix for it.
Thanks for your time.

ALSA-native apps access only ALSA device files, usually /dev/snd/*, not /dev/dsp*, those for OSS. In this case, it should be /dev/snd/controlC* files. Check the premission of these files.
