I have managed to get aplay to work so I must have stopped aRts correctly. aplay and arecord seem very fussy about the input options given to them such as formats and sample rates.

On your advice I tried stopping aRts by selecting Preferences>Sound>Sound Server from the K menu and unchecking the Start aRts soundserver on KDE startup option and clicking on apply. I then logged out and logged back in but aplay still failed to produce sound. Was this all that I needed to do to stop aRts?
