--- Comment #11 from Alain Kalker <a.c.kalker at gmail.com> ---
To add just one more thing:

I don't know if it is due to the "static_node" stuff or if the kernel really
does create /dev/snd/seq even before the snd_seq kernel module is loaded,
anyway, it would be nice if the error message that started all this had been
something like

"/dev/snd/seq: No such file or directory"

instead of:

"/dev/snd/seq: Permission denied"

The former would have me go looking for missing kernel modules, hardware
problems etc. immediately, the latter sent me down this twisting path...

Just my 2 cents.
