Ever get this to work? I am hitting the same issue in Angstrom on a 
beaglebone black.   Have noticed this oddity, I cannot set the periodsize:

bbb:
>>> a.setperiodsize(2048)
235L       ????    even smaller sizes, like 128, fail. Maybe that's hard 
coded for the limited hardware and I need to find a usb sound dongle.

PC with Ubuntu:
>>> output.setperiodsize(2048)
2048L     !!!!!

Also see there is no mixer device, but that could be due to the limited 
hdmi audio, which works with aplay, etc.
