I have no problems with my users added to the "sys" group.  Then again, I 
am using an AWE64, not a SB Live.  I would suggest trying putting a user in 
the "sys" group, and other than that, I don't know.  I have noticed that 
the sound support on some cards in Linux is dodgy.  For example, the Intel 
I810 chip that comes on a lot of newer computers as an on-board sound card 
is absolutely terrible!  I suppose that's why Alsa was invented.  It's a 
shame the kernel team couldn't get with the Alsa team and give the stock 
kernel some really good sound support.
