After changing the asound.conf slightly i am getting a permission
denied error now.

Can anyone please tell me how to change the "group" field of the
softlink in android.
if i use chown to change group to "audio" then its changing the
permission of the source file not the softlink.
The chown -h option is missing in andriod, or else it could have been
used.

Thanks,
Pramod.
