Did you install sound-theme-freedesktop?

You'll need a sound theme with sounds with names like:
audio-channel-front-center.oga
audio-channel-front-left.oga
audio-channel-front-right.oga
audio-channel-rear-center.oga
audio-channel-rear-left.oga
audio-channel-rear-right.oga
audio-channel-side-left.oga
audio-channel-side-right.oga

Otherwise, no sound to play...
