If snddevices works for you, then you're very very close to the solution. I bet on /etc/devfsd.conf ... Do you have audio user and group? In the original documentation there is audio.audio permissions to the sound devices. On my RedHat 7.1 there is no user/group audio/audio. Maybe this is the problem? I know it's frustrating... It took me a few months to get it running :-) Please send your /etc/modules.conf and /etc/devfsd.conf and I'll do my best to help you...
