I recently installed Ubuntu Dapper and found that gnomad2 would not
work for me due to the problem described in this bug. Here is my new
script version which works for both the hotplug system and udev, I
think.
Changes:
1) permissions for root:audio should be 0660, not 0666.
2) if DEVICE is not set but DEVNAME is, use DEVNAME
3) allow specified device to be either a regular file or a character device
