Yes and no. In past this happend to several sound cards too, root cause was that kernel /sys structure had changed, the HAL was not able to find the hardware, and the sound devices were not set correctly. CosoleKit takes the info from HAL, which is not aware of the card and does not set the permissions. Quick try: lshal | grep alsa
