Check if you can PLAY sound.

Sorry, the output explains nothing (the device seems to be up).

Look at the file closer (maybe even dump it with "od" or such ): is it
absolute silence (always zero) or is it 0+-1? If it's always zero, it's
probably the soundcard, otherwise probably the input source (cable,...).
Don't quote me on that, though.
