please check your /etc/udev/rules.d/10-imx.rules file. It must contain
following lines:

KERNEL=="mxc_ipu", MODE="0666"
KERNEL=="mxc_vpu", MODE="0666"
SUBSYSTEM=="video", MODE="0660"
KERNEL=="fb[0-9]", MODE="0660", GROUP="video"
KERNEL=="gsl_kmod", MODE="0660", GROUP="video"
KERNEL=="galcore", MODE="0660", GROUP="video"

If there no such lines - add them and reboot device. This should fix
access rights to ipu, vpu and gpu devices.

Then add 'app' user to 'audio' group - this could be a reason why you
have no sound.
