usually this doesn't work, too, because /dev/snd is symlinked to /proc/asound/dev, which you cannot modify the permission explicitly via chmod or chown. the only way to change the owner/permission is to pass a proper module option to snd.o at starting the alsa. if it's a devfs, then a different matter, though.
