It sounds similar to the problem I had getting ringing working with
zhone in Debian. look in the mailing list, but this is the essence:

cd /
ln -s /usr/share
 
this was due to a pkg problem in Debian. I dont know if it helps you.

also try playing the arkanoid sid tune with sidplay and see if that
works.
