as for muted sound, this is fixed once you enabled *both* sound & alsa service.

regarding permission, this is the pam job to set them up on user login.

After booting, if I login as non-root user, then I can play sound just fine 
since /dev/dsp allows write access. 
 
However, if after boot, I login as root from the console, logout and then 
login as non-root user, I can't even start aumix since permission to open 
/dev/dsp is denied. 
 
lr-xr-xr-x    1 root     root            9 Aug 30 17:51 /dev/dsp -> sound/dsp 
 
To fix this, I ran as root "/etc/rc.d/init.d/sound stop" which did not unload 
the sound driver !? I had to run "modprobe -vr" to unload the sound modules 
and then run "/etc/rc.d/init.d/sound start" to reload them. Thereafter, 
non-root user could run aumix and play sound. However, the permissions of 
/dev/dsp remained the same. So what is preventing a non-root user from 
accessing /dev/dsp ?
