Have you tried playing the music with a regular media player? Does it work
fine? The songs are available in </usr/share/games/neverball/bgm>.

Other than that, the only option left to configure the audio device is
whether stereo should be enabled or not. It is disabled in 1.4.0, but it has
been enabled in the development version. It would be interesting if you
could try the attached patch.

I have built an i386 package[1] enabling this patch so that it is easier for
you to test. You only need to download and install neverball[2] («dpkg -i
neverball_1.4.0-3~stereo_i386.deb»).
