I'm using kernel version 2.6.10-5-386 and ALSA version 1.0.6.

When I do that nothing happens - all I can do is to close the termial...
My Extigy is hw:0 because I disabled my onboard-soundcard (I listed the
module in /etc/hotplug/blacklist). So I made

stefann@Rosa:~$ aplay -D plughw:0 shutdown.wav

but nothing happens (that's the same with every other wav-file - even
when I use a filename which doesn't exist). I'm quite sure that hw:0 is
correct, because when I do

stefann@Rosa:~$ cat /proc/asound/cards
0 [Extigy         ]: USB-Audio - Sound Blaster Extigy

Thank you for your help!!
