When logging into KDE I see the following message. Not all the time.
Sound server informational message:
Error while initializing the sound driver
device /dev/dsp can't be opened (permission denied)
The sound server will continue, using the null output device.
As root, do: chmod 666 /dev/dsp chmod 666 /dev/dsp1 chmod 666 /dev/mixer
This has helped me out several times...
I THINK that helped, but after reboot the perms for /dev/dsp and /dev/mixer revert back to 600... So the problem returns.
I can temporarily fix the problem by going into configure desktop -> Sound and saving settings. Then sound works. But if I reboot it's gone again, and I see the permission error.
Is there a way to fix this permanently? Thanks.
