I believe you got it to work.  However, you "force fixed" it and are hiding the
underlying problem.

When you login the acls of the devices listed in /dev/snd should be changed to
something along the lines of:

# file: hwC0D0
# owner: root
# group: audio
user::rw-
user:egreshko:rw-
group::rw-
mask::rw-
other::---

In your case that is not happening.  So, you've force fixed it by joining the "audio"
group as all the devices are in the "audio" group.  This could also point to other
issues on your system where other acls aren't getting properly modified on login. 

In any case, it is *not* a "requirement" as you've stated.  It is a "kludge" to get
around another problem.
