Check your permissions on /dev/dsp* and /dev/audio* -- if they're
something like 660 or 640, you'll need to do one of a couple different
things. You can add yourself to the group that owns those devices (if
they're 660; if not, you can change the mode to 660 and then add yourself
to the group), or do what I did, and change the mode to 666.
I ran into this a couple weeks ago after a Slackware installation.
