that's the alsa-state when loading/unload the drivers and should be
taken care of by your /etc/init.d/alsa script..

Ehrm, you're mocking me, right? ALL of those above device symlinks miss
the write flag. How about you try and chmod 660 all of them?
They should read:
lrw-rw---- ...
and
crw-rw---- ..

Moreover your permissions in /dev/sound/* and /dev/video/* are missing
in the above listing. (the symlinks gotta have +w too anyway)
