An ownership on /dev/audio and similar device files changes at the time

using PAM - files in /etc/pam.d usually contain lines like
session optional /lib/security/pam_console.so
for that purpose.
The list of device files which should change owner upon user login from
console is controlled by the list of "console device classes" in
/etc/security/console.perms
If you need to permanently have root as the owner of /dev/audio, you
should remove /dev/audio from the list of console devices.

If I remove /dev/audio from the list of console devices, can a user who logs in to the console listen to audio?
