Can only run sqlplus as oracle user

Platform is Solaris 10, Oracle 10

I can run sqlplus OK when logged on to Solaris as the oracle user, but if I run sqlplus when logged in as another user I get the error

ORA-09925: Unable to create audit trail file

Oracle environment variables are the same for both users.

Why should it matter what unix user I am logged on as?

$ sqlplus /NOLOG
