Followup on audio problem.

I'm at a standstill on this problem. Maybe someone here has an idea what the error, "Direct access to sound device not possible" indicates and how to fix the problem. The card is an SB Audigy2 ZS, which worked very well for 9.2 "right outta the box." NOT so with 9.3.....clean install. I DO get system sounds, but the above error is from the Alsa audio player.
