Hey,
Running the command
Code:
mpg123 /path/to/some.mp3
Works fine when running as ROOT, but when I switch to another user (In this case a user called `nagios`) I get a list of errors about the device not existing
Code:
[nagios@srudge ~]$ mpg123 /path/to/some.mp3

How do I enable the sound card for a non-root user?
