Dumb question - are you logged in on the local console, or are you
doing a remote login. By default, the sound resources are owned by
root until a user logs into the local console. Then they are owned
by that user until the user logs out. Doing a ssh or telnet login,
or a remote X login, does not count. This is all controlled by
console.perms.

You probably modified
─/etc/security/console.perms.d/50-default.perms so that the default
values lets anyone from the audio group (or what ever group you
decide to use.) can read/write to it.

<console>  0600 <sound>      0600 root

to

<console>  0600 <sound>      0660 root.audio
