WAV sound files work under root, flash videos do not have sound under root.
When trying to play a wav while not root, i get the following error (flash video's sound doesnt work under root:
merlin$ aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav
ALSA lib confmisc.c:768:(parse_card) cannot find card '0'
ALSA lib cond.c.3513:(_snd_config_evaulate) function snd_func_card_drver returned error: no such file or directory
ALSA lib confmisc.c:1251:(snd_func_refer) error evaluating name
ALSA lib conf.c:3512:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_refer returned error: No such file or directory
ALSA lib conf.c:3985:(snd_config_expand) Evaluate error: No such file or directory
ALSA lib pcm.c:2202(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM default
aplay: main:590: audio open error: No such file or directory
---------------
ive tried the alsamixer and alsaconf, along with loading the modules as it says so in the sound portion of the wiki, and restarting my computer. I still dont have sound. help?
Module: snd_hda_intel
Command:
merlin$ ls -l /dev/snd
yields a controlC0 and pcmC0D0p
and no, its not muted.
Command:
not_root@merlin$ alsamixer
alsamixer: finction snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory
Command:
root@merlin$ alsamixer
works.
I added the non root user to the sound card group, but im still getting the same errors. [

I assume you mean the 'audio' group?
Do you have a ~/.asoundrc? This can be used to override /etc/asound.conf on a per-user basis.
For lack of better words: chair, never, toothbrush, really. Ohw, and fish!

its working.
Thanks.
Upon restart, the sound is muted though. Any workarounds for this?

Run
alsactl store
as root after unmuting it.
