You may need to specify which sound card to send/receive the sound
through.
To see all your sound devices, run:
aplay -l
Figure out what card # and device # your m-audio is. Then run:
aplay -d hw:1,0 some.wav (for card #1, device #0 -- adjust as
necessary).
Another thing to try is running gnome-volume-control.pulse and selecting
your m-audio device on the "output" tab.
