The problem is in sndiod; it's supposed create a world readable directory regardless the user umask. I just commited the fix; you could either start it with the 022 umask now or rebuild sndiod with sndiod.c rev 1.14 or newer. Let me know if things work better. > I set that umask for all > users to avoid forgetfully > bleeding information between accounts. Another option is to create the home directories with mode 0700 and leave the default umask. This doesn't protect files outside their home dir, but I'm not sure this would be a problem.
