I am not a Gnome user, I use KDE. In running XMMS as root, I can do it several ways, through a Konsole shell window, through the "Run Command..." dialog, and from within Gnome as both user and root. My sound configuration is through arts which is the KDE default (or only?) choice. I am using the stock OSS driver for XMMS.
