This may be very out of date information, but I remember being surprised 
that a whole lot of Linux sound stuff depended on the X11 DISPLAY 
variable being set. Maybe it's not set for you on the command line?

(talking of Linux sound, have folks seen Orca —

Orca "... an esoteric programming language, designed to create 
procedural sequencers in which each letter of the alphabet is an 
operation, where lowercase letters operate on bang, uppercase letters 
operate each frame." It's been described as nethack crossbred with a 
spreadsheet for making EDM.
