It seems to be something with aRts or so. Please do a test:
_Don't_ log on to X.
Login to console aas user (you can reach it by <ctrl> <alt> <F2>)
try as follows:
$ mplayer -vo none some-sound-file
Sound?
$ cvlc some-video-file
Sound?
$ aplay some-wav-file
Sound?
You can adjust soundsetings by running
$ alsamixer
and tune whatever you want.
