>From memory, forgive me if its wrong, but debian installs the audio devices with read/write access for owner and group with owner being root and group being audio. To fix it you can either add read/write access for world to the devices (chmod o+rw) or add any users needing access to sound to the audio group (vi /etc/group). It appears I have done the second option and as I am listening to music I presume it worked.
