Couldn't open device. about headsetcontrol HOT 5 CLOSED

Can confirm that permissions are not working even with sudo make install, I still need to use sudo.

If this is really due to udev rules, could you implement this into your code?

Edit: After a reboot, everything is working fine without sudo.

Probably no permissions. Use sudo or install the respective udev rules by typing make install as stated in the README.

I needed to add my VOID product id to the udev rules: 0a1a

KERNEL=="hidraw*", SUBSYSTEM=="hidraw", ATTRS{idVendor}=="1b1c", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0a1a", TAG+="uaccess"

@KannstGarnichts you may need to add yours. you can fetch it with lsusb command

Had same issue as reporter! Fixed the same way. Thanks a lot! (I think we should close this issue)

You need to type sudo udevadm control --reload-rules && sudo udevadm trigger to reload the rules without a reboot. I probably should include that hint into the install process.
