With hdspmixer preset 1, you should have signal coming out of all the physical outputs, and also a VERY LOUD signal on the line outs, as all the playback channels are routed to the line outs and thus summed up. How is the card wired up ? Do the meters show signal going through the outputs (3rd hdspmixer row) ? As a side not, if you want to use alsaplayer with the alsa, you must use the plughw interface : alsaplayer -o alsa -d plughw:0 > >> 4) Run hdspconf and look at the way you have clocks set up.
