Comment(by mstone):

 It turns out that there are three issues at stake here.

 First, the file

 {{{
 /etc/security/console.perms.d/50-default.perms
 }}}

 needs to have entries like

 {{{
 <console> 0666 <sound> 0666 root.audio
 <console> 0666 <v4l>   0666 root.video
 }}}

 rather than the current entries (which assign permissions 0600 to those
 devices every time olpc-dm is run).

 This file is owned by the 'pam' package so we should fork that package if
 we have not already done so.

 Next, the PCM volume defaults to 0 and the MASTER and PCM channels are
 both muted. I don't know what components are responsible for managing this
 so someone who understands how we control sound is going to have to work
 on this part.
