I have the same problem.

The wierd thing is I had this same system running with sound
perfectly when I was running Progeny. I upgraded to woody and
it hasn't been the same since.
All I seem to get to work is the gtk-events/toggled,
gtk-events/clicked, and the sound for closing windows. What's
really strange is I can't get any of the sounds under gnome
control center Multimedia->Sound->Sound events to play at all.
However, I installed the esound sound monitor applet and
right-click->Manager->Samples, when I click on these, they all
play perfectly?!
I'm at a loss as well.
