From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040312 Description of problem: Playing MP3s (using a third party xmms-mp3 RPM) works fine as root (i.e. you can hear the MP3). When trying to play MP3s as a normal user with the ALSA output plugin selected, XMMS outputs the following message to stdout: ** WARNING **: alsa_setup(): Failed to open pcm device (default): Permission denied Similar warnings are displayed for other output plugins, such as for OSS: ** WARNING **: oss_open(): Failed to open audio device (/dev/dsp): Permission denied Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): policy-1.9.2-12 xmms-1.2.10-2.p How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start xmms as normal user 2. Play sound Actual Results: xmms is unable to play the sound because of permissions problems Expected Results: xmms should play sounds when run by a normal user Additional info: No policy warnings appear in /var/log/messages. xmms still doesn't work with setenforce 0. Maybe this is not a policy problem?
Could you relabel the /dev/ directory. I beliece we have a problem with the latest udev rewriting files on /dev and loosing the file context. setfiles /etc/security/selinux/file_contexts /dev We have a bug report in on udev. Dan
What's the status on this one? Did the relabeling of /dev solved your issues?
