In SL5 a number of devices, such as floppy disks, memory sticks,
cd/dvd drives are only available to a user who is logged in on the
console - so that remote users can't read devices that the console
user has plugged in. Sound might come into the same category.
/etc/security/console.perms might be a starting point.
