[cygwin 1.3.11+]: Problem with /dev/dsp?

Hi,

My Version: 
CYGWIN_ME-4.90 DRAGON 1.3.13s (0.54/3/2) 20020705 16:31:22 i686 

I just noticed an oddity with /dev/dsp.  I am working on a package which
is expecting to use /dev/dsp as it would in bsd or linux.  The problem is
that open() is no able to access it.  This behaviour can be reproduced by
issuing "cat /dev/dsp".  The specific error I recieve with the program or
the testcase is:

/dev/dsp: Permission denied

This condition was not present in 1.3.10.  I have attached a strace of the
testcase for your reference.  Note that I have no audio inputs present on
the machine which would keep the dsp constantly busy.

Cheers,
Nicholas
