What audio parameters (if any) are you currently giving xine at startup?
I think you should be able to specify something like '-A ALSA:hw:1,1'
(using the correct card number and device number to get audio from the
particular card/device combo you want) This also requires that your
.asoundrc and modules.conf (or equiv) files are setup correctly. You
can check /proc/asound or 'aplay -l' and 'aplay -L' to get a listing
of all cards and devices currently recognised.
