Example:

I've selected the sound card to play already, i'm a 4 years user of
gentoo so it's not a problem, right now using fedora 10 without
pulseaudio and alsa-driver 1.0.19.

Already tried using audacious playing hw:1,0 (or 0.0 if card goes to
1st device) with alsa output trying too hear but nothing
aplay with various combinations don't get sound too

the funny thing is when not playing;

cat /proc/asound/card1/pcm0p/sub0/status
