What about per-user configuration? When I was running an unholy combo of Pulse, 64-bit WINE and 32-bit Adobe flash around a year ago, I regularly had quirks were Pulse would reset my ALSA master mixer to 0, and I'd have to go through and adjust a few levels before things worked properly again. Anyway, what are you using to try to play audio? A Pulse client? An ALSA client? It's hard to narrow down where the fault is without knowing the path the data's trying to take. I'd suggest using 'aplay' to try to play back some .wav files.
