I'm obviously not TheMuso, but since I keep an eye on Audio related
issues in Debian and Ubuntu, I'll try to triage this...

Reporter: Can you attach the output out strace paplay some-wav-file
please?

I believe I have seen something similar to this issue, but have been
unable to reproduce it on neither my Debian lenny desktop nor my
Ubuntu-running laptop (it only happened to me once).

Invalid argument indicates that it is trying to a dead socket; I have
seen this behaviour before. An strace will help to determine if this is
the issue.

Thanks!
