install alsaplayer-alsa or load the alsa oss emulation modules (snd_mixer_oss, snd_pcm_oss, snd_seq_oss) Alsa still seems to have a couple of problems here (like when changing the volume the internal speakers turn on although a headphone is plugged in, alsa-player/mplayer when really playing in alsa mode just give distorted sounds) Oss emulation seems to work fine and also the dmix suggestions from Michael Daenzer (say I can have several alsa using players have play at the same time, like xmms,mpg123 ...) However then setting AUDIODEV=default causes immediate seqfaults of esd... Soeren
