It hasn't any /etc/asound.conf. This works:

$ aplay -D plughw:0,0 shared/testing.wav

Those plughw devices are predefined ones when no .asoundrc is being
used?

Output from aplay -l:

$ aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: ICH6 [Intel ICH6], device 0: Intel ICH [Intel ICH6]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: ICH6 [Intel ICH6], device 4: Intel ICH - IEC958 [Intel ICH6 -
IEC958]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 1: Modem [Intel ICH6 Modem], device 0: Intel ICH - Modem [Intel
ICH6 Modem - Modem]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

This means I've two cards and the first one two devices, doesn't it?
