Well, this means it cannot write to audio device (snd_pcm_writei returns 
an error), but I do not know why...

You could also try 
http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/alsa-lib/_2test_2pcm__min_8c-example.html#a9 
and tell us if that program works for you.

If you have a bit of programming knowledge, look at 
./plugins/sound_alsa/sound_alsa.cxx from ptlib, function 
PSoundChannelALSA::Write, and play around with it.
