The few first time I tried ALSA with my SB Live! 5.1 and 5.1 system, I tought it didn't work too. I only heard static on the center speaker.

 

Then I discovered alsamixer :)

 

Type alsamixer and see if the various channels are configured correctly. In my case, the master was at 0 (muted) and the last channel, digital 5.1, was on. I don't have a digital speaker system, and digital is sent through... center speaker channel. Thus, the static.
