Description Ralf-Christian Juergensen 2006-04-05 09:21:43 UTC
The group of /dev/sound is not set to 'audio' but 'root'. When I emerge coldplug (it's not blocked?!) and start coldplug on boot the group is is set to 'audio' as expected. The permissions/groups of the other sound-related devicefiles and links in /dev are correct.

ebuilds used: udev-89-r2, coldplug-20040920

Please un-emerge coldplug.  It's a bug right now that you are able to have both
udev and coldplug in the system at the same time, I'm working to fix the coldplug
issue soon.

I know. But then the permissions are not correctly set and I cannot access sound devices as a user (which is in group 'audio')!

Not true. You can access them just fine.

# ls -ld /dev/sound
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 160 2006-04-04 20:15 /dev/sound
# ls -ld /dev/snd
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 320 2006-04-04 20:15 /dev/snd

All sound works, both OSS emulation and alsa.
