Probably best to run after login:

$ pulseaudio -k (to kill the running daemon: confirm it's stopped with: 
ps aux | grep pulse)

$ pulseaudio -vvv (to run a new server and give lots of nice debug output).

After doing this try paplay again and see what the server says about it 
in it's debug message.
