Hmm... I did all that and saved it... then tried running the alsaplayer
command with the options you showed and here's what I got in return.

ALSA lib pcm.c:1963: (snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM ch4dup
snd_pcm_open: No such file or directory (ch4dup)
/usr/lib/alsaplayer/output/libalsa.so failed to load
I could not find a suitable output mosule on your system.  Make sure
they're in "usr/lib/alsaplayer/output/".
Use the -o parameter to select one.
failed to load output add-on. exiting...

Hmm... I don't get some of this stuff... sorry.  Any thoughts?
Thanks, Adam
