Audio problem

Hi,

On my area when I use xmms and go to the preferences, I see I'm using
ALSA. Click on configure, I can see 4 devices : default, two
soundblasters (hw:0,0 and hw:0,3) as well as the internal Intel sound. I
have the device set to default and the use software volume control box
ticked. XMMS works fine on my area.

If I go to the wifes area, xmms only shows the default device. I've set
it to use ALSA with the volume control box ticked. The only device
available is the default one.

When I tried using kmix, it is showing up as there being no audio mixers
at all.

What files do I need to alter on /dev so that any user has access to
them?

Currently, /dev/mixer is set as crw------- 1 paul root 14, 0
           /dev/mixer0          lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     5 ->mixer
           /dev/mixer1          crw        1 paul root 14,16

I imagine I need to set /dev/mixer & /dev/mixer1 to be chown root.root
and chmod 777 on it.

TTFN

Paul
