different user causes 'no such device'

[william estrada <MrUmunhum@popdial.com>]

Hi guys,

   I have what seams like a interesting problem.  I have written an ALSA app
to record wav files and it runs while I am logged in an terminal as the
logged in Gnome user or root.  But when I su to another user, it can't
find the default sound card.

   I am running FC6.  I tried changing own of /dev/dsp to 'nobody', that did
not work.

   Anyone know of this problem and a fix for it.

   Thanks for your time.
