After doing even more research, I believe the problem is the error
"File descriptor in bad state" when I run the command.
cat /usr/local/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav > pcmC0D2p
I guess this is more because this is the only thing which is throwing
an actual error! I may be completely wrong though, any and all help
will be much appreciated :)

Hi guys.
I have gone through all the steps to try and get alsa working on my
computer, and have run upon the following situation.
aplay -l reports the correct sound card.
I have used both amixer and alsamixer to unmute all my channels, and
have gone through and even unmuted only selective channels.
The system never complains about anything, but when I run
speaker-test, it produces no sound.
The output that appears on the console in all these instances looks
fine, (no blatant errors) but still sound refuses to come out of the
speaker.
I have checked all the cables, and the sound is onboard NVIDIA.
I have compiles alsa into my kernel.
The only thing which is a little weird, is if I try to cat a sound
file directly to the devide I get a error similar to this.
"/dev/snd/controlC0: File descriptor in bad state"
Other than this, everything on the surface seems fine.
I havn't sent the output to any of these programs because, as I said
there are no visible errors, but will send them if anyone thinks they
can mine the hidden clues I have missed.
Cheers
