What happens when you run "aplay -Dplughw:1 something.wav"?There is a delay of exactly as long as the file takes to play with '-Dplughw:0', then I get another shell prompt, as if the system thought the audio was playing, but there is only silence. It works fine with sound card 0 (built-in audio), but sound card 1 (USB audio) generates only silence.
I don't know whether this output from dmesg is relevant:

And the output from 'amixer -c1':
