I know what needs done, but not necessarily the most elegant way to do it:

You can create a group, called "audio" or something, and make sure the users who need sound are a member of that group. chown .audio /dev/dsp , then
chmod g+rw /dev/dsp

The problem with this is that it will disappear when you reboot the server--I have tried setting this up with udev, but I have not got it to work correctly. I have encountered precisely this issue in Fedora, and I am trying to figure out how Mandrake gets this to work properly (my understanding of udev is limited, but it seems that's how Mandrake makes the dsp node always have the right permissions).

Anyone got a solution?
