Thanks, David. I do appreciate the effort.
I don't think it's a permissions problem. I've set up a mythtv user
specifically for the purpose of running myth, and that user is in both
the audio and video groups. I've run aplay as that user with the
following command:
aplay -D default <soundfile>
...and it works fine. I will also note that if I uninstall ALSA and use
the OSS drivers, and use /dev/dsp as my audio output device, then audio
playback works great. I would love to use OSS and scrap ALSA entirely,
but I'm also using Xine to play DVDs and it doesn't sync audio correctly
with OSS, so it needs ALSA.
Thanks again for trying, David. Anyone else have any suggestions?

I have tried that as well, and I'm still having the same problem.
Any other suggestions?
Not really - I had a fair amount of trouble with ALSA, but once I got
aplay working then mythtv was a breeze, apart from a bit of
unscientific fiddling with the mixer to work out which sliders to
enable.
If I was in your situation I'd be looking at permissions on the
devices (are you runing aplay as the same user as mythfrontend?), but
I'd only be guessing.
Maybe someone else can help you..
Good Luck

In MythTV, I have the following settings configured in Utilities/
Setup -> Setup -> General:
Audio output device: ALSA:default
Mixer Device: /dev/mixer
Mixer Controls: Master
I think your mixer Device should be set to: default
