Thanks Sam for the "howto, made simple"
Unfortunately the soft I am using is still replying a "unable to open audio 
device /dev/dsp"
Strangely all other applications are doing their beeps and clongs, 
windowslike music at the startup and closing a KDE cession....
should the /dev/sound/dsp be 664 ? as well as the link to it ?

I am lost..... :-(
