Ok, this might be a permissions problem.

Try adding your regular users to group audio, per the guidance here in step 6:
SDB:AudioTroubleshooting - openSUSE - step-6 : How to fix a permissions problem

Then restart and test your audio.

somehow, somewhere, someway we need to make sure new users get this
message:

Do not log into KDE (Gnome, XFCE, etc) as root, ever!

or, openSUSE needs to:

- be impossible to log in as root (but, that is the Redmond
training-wheels-mentality solution), or

- between the time the user types "root" in the ID block the time s/he
types the second letter of root's password in the password block the
screen needs to change from green to bright pulsating RED and the
password block needs to disappear and in its place is caution and
warning words about why NOT to do that..

AND, specific, clear and easy instructions on how to (properly) sign
in as a normal user and become root as needed by (for example) using
YaST or root powered file managers/editors etc etc etc..

then! give an exam on how to do it right and if the user passes the
exam, *then* give a final "You are on your own!" and let them have the
password field back...but, reset the user block to the default user..
