First, check if your "user" is not using any other program that uses
audio. Probably you are running esd. If it's running, you can setup
xmms to output sound trought it, or simply kill esd and run xmms.
        
Another thing: Have you checked permissions of /dev/dsp, /dev/audio
and /dev/mixer?
This should fix them:
        cd /dev
        ./MAKEDEV audio

Bye!
