Generally for trouble shooting I would hit the card directly:
alsaplayer -i hw:1,0 filename.flac
aplay --device=hw:1,0 filename.flac
aplay can't handle anything but straight PCM formats. in addition, using hw:XXX means that the requested data format MUST match the hardware capabilities. if you ask for a sample rate or channel count not supported by the hardware, the device configuration will fail. this is why the "default" device with ALSA is never hw:XXX but at minimum plughw:XXX (which can do just about any format conversion necessary).
