Well, then I know why it doesn't work!
The device is not automatically detected at startup. If the device is
not detected, then it will not be useable.
There can be several reasons for that :
- the device is occuppied by another process when you startup, and it is
not detected because of that : kill artsd and esd to try.
- you don't have the right permissions : have you tried as root ?
- the module is not loaded when you startup : try lsmod | grep audio, is
the audio.o module loaded ?

Well I can't see something else because the auto-detection works fine
here.
