Thanks Paul and Christopher for your suggestions. I checked out the
permissions you mentioned. They seem to be in order.

bash-2.01$ ls -al /dev/cdrom
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root            8 Jun  2 20:48 /dev/cdrom ->
/dev/hdc
bash-2.01$ ls -al /dev/hdc
br--r--r--   1 root     disk      22,   0 Mar  3  1999 /dev/hdc   
bash-2.01$ ls -al /dev/audio
crw-rw-rw-   1 root     audio     14,   4 Nov  9  1999 /dev/audio
bash-2.01$ ls -al /dev/dsp
crw-rw-rw-   1 root     audio     14,   3 Nov  9  1999 /dev/dsp  

Perhaps this is a clue to the problem:When I issue a dmesg |less
command, 
I get the following at the end:

Soundblaster audio driver Copyright (C) by Hannu Savolainen 1993-1996
SB 4.13 detected OK (220)

registered device ppp0
PPP BSD Compression module registered

The disk change I think is when I took out and replaced audio cds. So it
looks more like a cdrom problem than a sound problem. The message that I
am unable to open the cdrom pops up now whenever I login as a
user....everything still works if I login as root. 
Any other ideas? I will try to login as another normal user and see if
it is just in my own user configuration somewhere.
