Thanks Emil:


gabriel at pc-gabriel ~ $ groups
gabriel adm cdrom floppy audio src video plugdev lpadmin

gabriel at pc-gabriel ~ $ ls -l /dev/dsp
crw-rw----  1 root audio 14, 3 2004-12-10 17:32 /dev/dsp

gabriel at pc-gabriel ~ $ ls -l /dev/audio
crw-rw----  1 root audio 14, 4 2004-12-10 17:32 /dev/audio

As U can see, I'm member of the audio group and the group has rw 
permission on both devices.

Now, how can I "see if anything is allocationg audio device"?
