When I log in from the text consoles or the native GUI (but not by ssh) the pemissions and owner in /dev/snd are changed to 0600 and the logged-in user, respectively. I can't find where, or in what script, this is done. I'd like to disable that behavior and leave all permissions in /dev/snd to 0666, without them being changed behind my back when someone logs in. How can I do this?

This happens in Fedora 8. I imagine earlier Fedoras do that too.


ConsoleKit is the app that changes permissions behind your back when people log in on a physical console. Of course, if you disable it then you'll probably be stuck with the 0600 permissions, which you can then fix with a udev rule.

Personally, I just completely remove pulseaudio from my system and enjoy working sound. I've long since given up on filing bug reports.
