I should have set this up years ago. But it's no tale of woe.

Fire sound repeating.[SOLVED]
So I compiled a build form git last night and almost everything is going fine. I installed it all in one location, changed the config file for the server, and added a daemon to systemd. The server runs fine. If I run minetest as root it runs fine. If i run it as a normal user every sound is replaced with a fire sound. Steps sound like fire, digging at stuff;fire... etc. Anyway I find it awful strange that if i run the minetest client as root and then log in to the minetest server as a user every thing works fine. If I start minetest with my normal user and log into the minetest server as the same user I used with root I get fire sounds for everything. I assume this is a permissions issue but where???

I finally got it working and came back to report. Suspissions confirmed and it was a permissions issue. Thanks for the input sfan.
I don't have minetest installed at /usr/share.. and minetestserver runs as a user minetest with group minetest. Since all of it is in the same folder in my install I added my user to the minetest group. Cheers!
