device default cant open for playback invalid argument.
can i get some help with this THANKS for any help!!!
You shouldn't be logging in as root. Log in only as a regular user and
use su or sudo to accomplish tasks that require root-level access. It's
extremely bad *NIX practice to log in as root and such behavior should
be avoided whenever possible.

Man this really throw me off track if something is broken as root do not use root. leave it broken and go to user where it is not broken!!
That is not what he said.
How far will Fedora get if this kind of mentallaty is used ??
If you look closely, you'll see that he is not a Fedora developer. Or at
least seems not to be.
Boy why did i not think of that myself ??
Lack of imagination? Inability to understand plain English? Sarcastic
irritating attitude?
I could continue to guess, but I'm getting tired.

I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
