Have you tried using -D hw:0 or other values after "hw:" instead of -D
plughw:0 ? If the card has more than one output device you may need to
also
give a second value, so use something like -D hw:0,1 instead.
What does "aplay -l" give you?
If you have installed pulse and have it running, it may have altered
things. I found this myself from having used pulse.

Hi Jim,
aplay -l gives me this:
*** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC888 Analog [ALC888 Analog]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 1: M2496 [M Audio Audiophile 24/96], device 0: ICE1712 multi
[ICE1712 multi]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
When I type the following command my DACs are working (Analog Outputs):
$ aplay -D plughw:1 /tmp/Track6.wav
The card number can also be M2496 or even 1,0. Now I know that the
analog outs work :-) The negative part is that the s/pdif output then
does not work.
If I drop the 'plug' in front of hw the 'Playing WAVE...' line comes and
then also 'aplay: set_params:1053: Sample format not available Available
formats: -S32_LE
If I use Vlc and with my Fedora 13 play music through the S/PDIF outputs
of the card the aplay command returns 'aplay: main:654: audio open
error: Device or resource busy.
Just in case you should ask me for some outputs from console commands is
there a quick way to copy them to the copy/paste buffer?
Namaste,
Kevin Tough
