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

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.
Running pulseaudio as root is not recommended unless you have a very
good reason to do so. Surprising how often this comes up. I almost
always recommend disabling this module in /etc/pulse/default.pa for this
reason
