A permission problem ? If you install as user X :
- root has always all the permissions
- and the permissions on the new files depends on his umask ( try the
command 'umask'

I suppose some permissions are missing for other people.
Personnally my first action would be to search the files affected by
sndconfig

Gnome sounds and all.
