Hi Nicholas I'm another Ubuntu fan.... except I use Lubuntu with its different desktop.
2 problems you might be having is group membership. Just after you install and before you try to run rdadmin. Run these 2 commands in a terminal... sudo adduser $USER rivendell and sudo adduser $USER audio Also check in the /etc/rd.conf file that the line saying AudioOwner=USERNAME is correct. Now log out or reboot the machine. Then try starting rdadmin. You might also want to check ownership of the /var/snd directory is correct. I hope this helps you.
