Since the latest yum update I have to run audio programs as root

audio group was sufficient.

Running audio programs as root should not be necessary and is almost never encouraged.

Can you please file a bug outlining the steps you took to diagnose this problem? Perhaps pulseaudio was run as root at one time leaving a /tmp/.esd1000 file with root permissions lying around? Or perhaps it was a MIDI problem. Please file a bug.

rm -R /tmp/.esd* seems to have fixed the problem,
which may have been caused by the cpu/motherboard swap.
