Two things come to mind - either permissions or a stale lock file. 

Do a drive filename search on ".lck" and see what comes up. 

Permissions have been known to be a pain as well. If you open up to 666 and no joy, then there is a lock file floating out there.

73 from 807,

First thought would be to do a "ps auxww | sort | less" and see what
processes you have running.  Look for names with "snd" or "sound" or
"audio" in them.  Or perhaps "dsp".  Anyone have more suggestions
for him?
