Splay is a package that you can find in contrib. You can also try sox.
I would try to play sounds using different programs, and when they work,
then I would try xmms.
Can you send us the output of dmesg regarding to the card? It should be
something like this:
es1370: version ...
es1370: found adapter at io ...
es1370: features ...

I'm not sure it is xmms's problem, it seems that you can't get play any
sounds at all... (CDs don't count since they don't get generated by the
sound card).

I have the same version here, which I compiled for a slink system.
