Same problem — programs like Totem and Rhythmbox work fine, but any
games (like Warsow, OpenArena or Urban Terror) fail, and also Flash
doesn't have any sound.
I have an NVIDIA sound device exactly the same as Vladimir's, and
receive exactly the same error as the OP's when launching Urban Terror:
------ Initializing Sound ------
Initializing SDL audio driver...
ALSA lib ../../../src/pcm/pcm_dmix.c:864:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open
slave
SDL audio driver is "(UNKNOWN)".
SDL_OpenAudio() failed: No available audio device
Sound initialization failed.
