SunOS 4.1 (finally) has support for secure SunView.  There's a special
file (/etc/devtab?) which is read by SunView, which contains a list of
devices which should be owned by the person running SunView There are
programs which can be used to change the ownership back and forth.  There
ought to be some way to get this program to allow you to change the
ownership of /dev/audio.  Look in System and Network Administration in the
4.1 manual set.
