Hi!

Just wondering if you have any suggestion on giving a 
non-console users access to audio / sound device?

Background: in my office computer (currently running Fedora 12) 
I like to open personal e-mails etc. in separate environment. So 
I created a separate user, ssh into it, make sure DISPLAY is 
correct there and xhost is correct from the console user, then 
run application from there. The issue is sometime I would like 
to get sound also.

Thanks!
