Hmm, manually setting this is no fun really :-)

maybe this helps:

/etc/devfsd.conf :

LOOKUP          snd          MODLOAD ACTION snd
LOOKUP          dsp*          MODLOAD
LOOKUP          mixer*        MODLOAD
LOOKUP          midi*         MODLOAD
REGISTER        sound/.*     PERMISSIONS root.audio 660
REGISTER        snd/.*       PERMISSIONS root.audio 660

This will react on module load and set the owner, group and permissions for 
/dev/sound/* and /dev/snd/* to user.group: root.audio and _rw_rw___. Change 
the last lines accordingly if you need different permissions and owner/group 
settings.

This is from Gentoo Linux devfsd.conf but it should work with mandrake, too.

Regards,

Richard
