Well, looks like the sound issue is hardware related.  Below is my 
result using the verbose command for aplay, which starts with "Playing 
WAVE . . .".  My daughter reports she does not get that, but does get a 
truncated report that shows file playing.  We're now going through steps 
of opening case and checking to make sure all connections of hardware 
are correct, and then will try another sound card.
