[newbie] Sound quit.
This morning the sound wouldnt start. XMMS seems to be playing the time is running and the display under the time, although jerkey, is working. The following message shows up whenever I attempt to configure the sound server and on startup. Sound server informational message: Error while initializing the sound driver: device: default can't be opened for playback (Permission denied) The sound server will continue, using the null output device.
