In 2.6.13 vanilla-sources alsa sound does not recgonize device_mode anymore. I first noticed this in 2.6.13-rc6, and it is still in 2.6.13. This is in the /etc/modules.d/alsa config file: options snd device_mode=0666 This is also in the documentation at the alsa we site. This sets the device mode of the /dev audio devices Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install a 2.6.13 vanilla-sources kernel 2. setup the snd options optsion snd device_mode=0666 in /etc/module.d/alsa 3. run modules-update 4. none of the sound modules load Actual Results: soud will not load Expected Results: it should work, as it works in 2.6.12-gentoo-sources

Don't use that anymore. You need to set that up in udev rules or in the static /dev.
