I installed 'jackd' & consorts (and also 'snd')
with Synaptic; I get the following messages :
-------------------------------------------------
rb at rene:~/pythoneon/Ondes$ snd wwus-test2.wav 
Cannot connect to server socket err = No such file or directory
Cannot connect to server socket
jack server is not running or cannot be started
can't play : open read /dev/dsp: Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type
  [audio.c[576] linux_audio_open_with_error]can't play: no audio support

rb at rene:~/pythoneon/Ondes$ aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: AD198x Analog [AD198x Analog]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 1: AD198x Digital [AD198x Digital]

rb at rene:~/pythoneon/Ondes$ pkg-config --modversion alsa
Package alsa was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `alsa.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'alsa' found

------------------------------------
'play' and 'aplay' are still working

I can try to install 'snd from a tar.gz ?
