=== Early Observations ===
 +
The stock /etc/asound.conf file looks like:
 +
<pre>
 +
pcm.mmap0 {
 +
    type mmap_emul;
 +
    slave {
 +
      pcm "hw:0,0";
 +
    }
 +
}
  
 +
pcm.!default {
 +
  type plug;
 +
  slave {
 +
    pcm mmap0;
 +
  }
 +
}
 +
</pre>
 +
... the problem here appears to be that a 'plug' channel (?) is assigned by default, however, [[jack]] is not installed. Bummer! Causes many of the players to fail.
 +
 +
Note:
 +
* ''mpg123'' works. But only as root.
 +
* ''gst123 -a alsa 2>/dev/null <filename>'' works (it is searching for jack first and outputs complaints on stderr)
 +
** On use w/o root:
 +
          Error: The autoaudiosink element is not working.
 +
          => file cannot be played and will be removed from playlist

 +
* The above just led to lockups (worse than w/ Dreamplug)
 +
* Tried installing jackd (5/2/2013) problem: it really wants to be GUI
