I think you probably have a pulseaudio issue. You could try aplay -Dplughw:0 some.wav If that doesn't work, go to the link below, download the script, and run it with the --no-upload option. Then if that doesn't enable you to figure out what is wrong by reading the output, reply with the output included in the email. I don't know your card so I can't say for sure what is wrong. http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Create and Deploy Rich Internet Apps outside the browser with Adobe(R)AIR(TM) software.
