Thank you Florian, that was the whole problem! Now I have both working (I left xmod as default)
aplay -L was the key to determine the correct name.
alsaplayer -d "default:CARD=Xmod" file.ogg
works.
Now I have to solve the volume button issue, which is not properly controlled.

You have to use "aplay -L" (which is the same as "aplay
--list-pcms") to
get a list of the known PCM names.

I think you are using the wrong device string; AFAIK, it has be a known
PCM name (see above). For example, on my system the correct alsaplayer
device string of the built-in Intel sound card is
"default:CARD=Intel";
"Intel" or "HDA Intel" do not work.
