That's very strange, because... |

YOU ARE GREAT!!! |
| 17 |
I have too Gentoos, "stable" and "testing". I had only vmplayer |
| 18 |
installed in "stable" (the virtual machine is in another partition). |
| 19 |
So I have: |
| 20 |
a) emerged alsa-oss |
| 21 |
b) emerged emul-linux-x86-soundlibs |
| 22 |
c) "chmod"ed and "ln -s"ed as you have advised |
| 23 |
and sound is working now both as root and as normal user! |
| 24 |
Thanks! |

If you have some spare time, I'ld like to understand why the symbolic |
| 27 |
link in /usr/lib32 is needed (and why your solution works on my |
| 28 |
system and not on yours....). |
| 29 |
But don't bother. I can imagine that you have something better to |
| 30 |
do ;-) |
