> Why is this and is there some workaround? Thanks for the help!You need to use an "audio" group, something fedora does not define.
I posted, maybe two months ago in this list, how to do that.
It should work for what you want.

How to add the audio group in Fedora 6.
1) Change /etc/security/console.perms.d/50-default.perms
# <console> 0600 <sound> 0600 root
<console> 0660 <sound> 0660 root.audio
2) Create a file /etc/udev/rules.d/52- sound.rules with the following
contents:
# audio devices
KERNEL=="dsp*", GROUP="audio", Mode="0660"
KERNEL=="audio*", GROUP="audio", Mode="0660"
KERNEL=="midi*", GROUP="audio", Mode="0660"
KERNEL=="mixer*", GROUP="audio", Mode="0660"
KERNEL=="sequencer*", GROUP="audio", Mode="0660"
KERNEL=="sound/*", GROUP="audio", Mode="0660"
KERNEL=="snd/*", GROUP="audio", Mode="0660"
KERNEL=="beep", GROUP="audio", Mode="0660"
KERNEL=="admm*", GROUP="audio", Mode="0660"
KERNEL=="adsp*", GROUP="audio", Mode="0660"
KERNEL=="aload*", GROUP="audio", Mode="0660"
KERNEL=="amidi*", GROUP="audio", Mode="0660"
KERNEL=="dmfm*", GROUP="audio", Mode="0660"
KERNEL=="dmmidi*", GROUP="audio", Mode="0660"
KERNEL=="sndstat", GROUP="audio", Mode="0660"
3) Create a group "audio" and add all users allowed to access
the audio devices.
