Vasudha, Could you please check the device nodes in /dev/snd folder? The desired output is: [root@ /home]# ls -l /dev/snd/ crw-rw---- 1 root root 116, 5 Jan 1 00:00 controlC0 crw-rw---- 1 root root 116, 4 Jan 1 00:00 pcmC0D0c crw-rw---- 1 root root 116, 3 Jan 1 00:00 pcmC0D0p If the nodes are not there, you have to create them first before trying aplay.
