Sound for non-root users on Debian
After a fresh installation everything seems work fine on my Debian. But for a non-root user, the volume control widget on the gnome desktop shows a little red cross, and there is no sound. It’s good if you hate playing music while you are working. However, in case you want it, there is a simple way. By default there is a group named ‘audio’ on Debian, the users in this group automatically get sound:) Root is of course one of them. If you also want sound, add yourself to that group by ‘adduser yourname audio’ then restart.
