I read:
Thanks, except now I get "Permission denied" errors when I try to run pd as a non-root user, and "No such device or address" when I run it as root.
brute f0Rc3: chmod 777 /dev/dsp
recommended: addgroup audio # if not there already chown :audio /dev/dsp chmod g+rw /dev/dsp
then add yourself or any other user that needs access to the audio group i.e.: adduser username audio
I was thinking maybe there was something like .pdrc file or similar config file where I could specify which /dev pd would use.
as mentioned earlier it's hardcoded
