VMWare Player

Do you mean when Linux is the Guest OS running inside player, or when you're base OS is Linux and you are running player on top of Linux?
 
I just loaded my Ubuntu VM (11.04 32-bit) using player VMware 4.01 and played some MP3s and it plays sound just fine. I don't know if that's what you were looking to confirm.
 
Also, I just updated my 11.04 Ubuntu to 11.10 and audio playback also works.
 
I'll put it this way; i went through all the motions to install tools, but I'm not positive they installed. Linux is a all greek to me.
I'll try agian.
 
Which Linux distro are you trying to get working. I'll see if i can get you the right commands to run to make sure the tools are installed and also see if I have any issues with audio.
 
Thanks. I'll give it a try. I'm downloading the 32-bit versions, let me know if you were using the 64-bit so I can mirror what you were trying.
 
I did a new install of the CentOS 6 64-bit using the VMware player 4.01 tool and the sound worked right out of the box. I didn't have to do anything or install any packages to get it working.
