Notice how the user root and the group audio have read and write
permissions to the dsp device, but others do not. Have a look at your
own machine, and see who has rights to read/write the dsp. Then either
add yourself to the audio group (edit /etc/group, go to the line
beginning with "audio" and add your username to the end) or you can
chmod o+rw /dev/dsp and let the world read/write to the dsp.
Change the relevant parts for yourself (such as the name "audio", and so
on)
