Lets distinguish between 2 things: one, that sound stops when you switch to TTY2 and your user is not logged in. This is fully expected. The second is that when you return to X your sound does not return.

But this would mean that either any user can eavesdrop on other user's audio, or a currently-seating user does not have access to the sound device (because the other user is using it). > > I'm adding my user to audio group for now.
