strace aplay -L 2>&1 | grep open | grep ENOENT

That's the actual problem.

However, when I'm doing MIPS or VAX work, which I, too, do mostly with
NFS root, there are a number of other solutions.

You can sniff the network traffic (tcpdump/wireshark) to see what the
client box is doing, or you can (this requires userspace NFS server
instead of the faster kernel NFS server) strace the NFS server
program.

Specifically for a NFS server that's handling development clients, I'd
really suggest you to install the userland NFS server and strace it.
That's a really easy solution to a lot of problems!
