I'm guessing that you're using ESD? Check your permissions on /usr/bin/esd. If the user:group are root:root, you'll have to have your permissions set to 755 or thereabouts (rwxr-xr-x) in order to get sound from a non-root account. The other alternative (the one I prefer) is to change esd to root:audio and then adding any users I want to have sound to the group "audio". (adduser username audio) If this doesn't help, then I'd suggest you provide us with some more details on what exactly is wrong. -Alex
