I do stand to be corrected, but I think that's the problem. I haven't
yet come across a system where /root was owned by some user other than
root. Try this:
chown root.root /root
and try starting alsa again.

You were correct. I'm not sure why root got marked gary:gary but that
stopped Alsa from being restarted. I still don't have sound so I'll be
back as soon a I can find something concrete wrong.
Thanks
