i'd try doing ./MAKEDEV audio over again. why not. also, which user are you trying to play sounds as? unless of course it's root, is the user in the sound "group"? in your dmesg are there any errors about the sound init? how about in the messages log? sounds like maybe your user isnt authorized to access the devices... if they're there, i don't see how bash could say they're not unless they're unseeable to that particular user because of permissions or something.
