I've gotten a couple of reports on this with 6.2. FWIW, I tested this 
on 6-STABLE before I ported it and didn't have any problems running 
as a non privileged user, so the  problem may disappear with the 6.3 
release. I can't reproduce the problem, (all my boxen are 7.0 and 
above) so if anyone can track this down it would be appreciated. I 
hesitate to flag this for >7.0 and as the problem doesn't show up for 
everyone. This may need an entry in devfs.conf, but I'm not sure 
where to begin with that as other devices that use sound don't seem 
to have a problem.
