792 | Another reason for error messages similar to the ones above could be a file in |
|
|
793 | <path>/etc/modules.d</path> supplying a <c>device_mode</c> parameter when it |
|
|
794 | isn't required. Confirm that this is indeed the issue and find out which file |
|
|
795 | is the culprit. |

805 | |
|
|
806 | <p> |
|
|
807 | Usually it is a file called <path>alsa</path> with the line <c>options snd |
|
|
808 | device_mode=0666</c>. Remove this line and restart the alsasound service and |
|
|
809 | that should take care of this issue. |
