I also have tried with a custom "~/.asoundrc" file and it seems it does not make any difference here (running GNOME + gnome-shell + pulseaudio). What it works like a charm is selecting the sound device to use from gnome-shell audio applet but, to be sincere, I don't know from where s this volume indicator coming from nor its name :-? > I think that any application that attempts to use PulseAudio (which is > the default, I think) will not play.

You can try with PA default/suggested applications to control the sound server, like "pavucontrol", "padevchooser" (I think this is now somehow deprecated), "gnome-pulse-applet" or whatever applet that integrates with PA and openbox and allows you to select the output device.
