I do not know what's the current exact plan to proceed with these h/w 
access issues, but in princible the place where these are to be handled is 
related to udev. I personally deal the soundcard issue with udev rules 
that assign the specific pcm devices to specific users because they are 
always the same. In the future, udev would assign certain devices to 
certain users based on the seat information, one way or other.
