Hal used to do ACL management, just like udev does. The new release of
hal has ACL management disabled, as it conflicts with udev. However,
udev seems to be incompatible with ConsoleKit 0.4.1 and needs a patch to
integrate correctly.
There's a patch for udev to fix this:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/hotplug/udev.git;a=commit;h=bded570432d7017c47882758b037e77f1ec8e79e

In the meanwhile, you could gain access to the audio devices by adding
yourself to the audio group. This is the old method used in Archlinux
before ACL management was integrated into udev and/or hal.
