Most answer is change the audio device ownership and permission e.g.
chown youruserid /dev/audio /dev/audioctl
chmod 600 /dev/audio /dev/audioctl
I did this way and it does not work.
Then I just rename the device filename e.g.
mv /devices/sbus@1f,0/SUNW,CS4231@d,c000000:sound,audio /devices/sbus@1f,0/SUNW,CS4231@d,c000000:sound,audio-bak
It works.
I guess some process keeps sending an audio file to the device. I still could
not find the process. Rebooting machine could be helpful but I did not do it
yet.
Again thanks for all your help.
