Comment (by coling):
Well I'd generally compile up aplay from alsa-utils in a 32-bit format (or
install the 32-bit package from your distro) as it's the most basic alsa
client.
The SHM error is actually fixed in git master but pulse should still fall
back to not using SHM. That said I'm not totally convinced that I know how
things work in this regard to advise you well enough ;)
I '''think''' that if the SHM doesn't work, it should just use a non-SHM
method but the fact is it's unable to connect at all to the pulse server
which implies that the 32-bit pulse client libraries are installed, but
for some reason, it cannot connect to the socket or the TCP port. Seeing a
strace of the access would probably indicate why it's not to connecting to
the socket file (it's located in /tmp (or in $TMPDIR if using current
git). If you are running a 32-bit chroot, then make sure this path is bind
mounted into the chroot.
For me it just works but I don't have any chroot, just a separate
/usr/lib/ and /usr/lib64 for libraries.
