chmod 660 /dev/snd/*
When you did a "chgrp audio /dev/snd/*", that corrected the group membership
issue with the users. However, if you see the permission bits:
crw------- 1 root root 116, 0 Feb 8 11:21 controlC0
user group other
rw- --- ---
Only the user has read and write permissions. The chmod (change mode) command
up top should correct that and give you something like
crw-rw---- 1 root root 116, 0 Feb 8 11:21 controlC0
user group other
rw- rw- ---
"man 1 chmod" for more details.
best to you,
