The above pointer to a FAQ contained:

Ensure that you've got the correct audio output device. To route audio through the default *ALSA* Mixer, change /dev/dsp to /ALSA:default/. To route the audio through *JACK*, change the setting to /JACK:/

Now could someone please explain how to accomplish this????
