/dev/dsp not honouring permission settings

hi,
I am having a real problem with /dev/dsp. I first tried creating a group called
sound, adding all my local users to this group and chgrp sound /dev/dsp. This
works in theory and in ls, but the first user who logged in is still the only one
who can play sound. I then just decided to change the permissions to 777 in
/etc/security/console.perms. The line now looks like this:
<console> 0777 <sound> 0777 root
But when I log out and back in,
ls -l /dev/dsp
crwxrwx--- 1 lorenzo sound 14, 3 Jan 30 2003 /dev/dsp
And when I reboot, the group reverts to root and the permissions stay the same.
What did I miss?
