It might be worth trying just aplay from the console, try to see if the problem is coming from alsa side or pulse. What does cat /proc/asound/cards say?

Tom, please investigate using aplay and report back.

This is probably a case of the outputs being muted, check using alsamixer.

Here is a quick overview of what to look for with the beagle c4 -> http://linuxsound.wordpress.com/2010/12/31/sound-beagleboard-c4/

On my Xm. I booted up the alip image from the current beta.

I tested out my power speakers. Other devices are able to power them.

I have tried aplay. Nothing.

I installed the xfce-mixer upped the various nobs and selections across the board.

tried aplay again. Nothing.

I installed acobra (xmms2) also nothing.

I then booted up my Beagle C4, and prompted ran into bug #732912. Needless to say I tried aplay from the serial cons and no audio was produced. I'm going to see what i can do with the beagle tutorial kurt posted and at least get my beagle C4 working and then take that SD card, boot on the Xm and see what if anything that might do on the Xm.

Sound works on Beagle-xm with latest Linaro kernel and stock ALSA userspace. The mixer controls for the output jack on the board are the "Headset" ones.

There is a possibility that bug #760919 is involved here, suggest trying the workarounds or patches mentioned there.
