Did you remove pulseaudio?
The universal default response to any problem with audio on linux is not
"remove pulseaudio". Sometimes there are audio problems that have
__nothing__ to do with pulse audio! Let's try to do some debugging
instead of guessing, please.
Ubuntu Studio Precise ships with a jack-pulseaudio-bridge. Of course, my
RME card can record, but not play when pulseaudio runs, but with the
Ubuntu Studio Precise default, this running bridge thingy, my RME PCIe
card didn't work.
jack dbus also cause pain here.
YMMV,
Ralf
PS: I searched my archive, here is what I did, to get my RME working
with Ubuntu Studio Precise:

With Synaptic I simply removed some packages:

Completely removed the following packages:
pulseaudio
Removed the following packages:
indicator-sound
indicator-sound-gtk2
libcanberra-pulse
pulseaudio-module-gconf
pulseaudio-module-jack
pulseaudio-module-x11
ubuntustudio-desktop
ubuntustudio-generation
ubuntustudio-recording
Commit Log for Sun Apr 29 19:58:05 2012
Completely removed the following packages:
gstreamer0.10-pulseaudio
libpulsedsp
pavucontrol
pulseaudio-utils
I rebooted.
Now there's sound for Firefox Youtube and if I use Thunar and click on a
mp3, everything is ok too. For the media player Thunar is using just a
Window pops up "No suitable mixer element found. snd_mixer_find_selem
failed.", but anyway everything is ok.
For QjackCtl and Yoshimi also everything is ok.
Removing the meta packages doesn't remove the apps. If needed I would
build a pulseaudio dummy package using equivs, at the moment it's
unneeded.

Ralf
