It works in the sense that it doesn't result in an error but it doesn't 
play sound and just outputs:

Playing raw data 'stdin' : Unsigned 8 bit, Rate 8000 Hz, Mono


Playing sound using Audacious works fine though. In the Audacious output 
settings it shows the audio device as "default", the mixer card as "M Audio 
Audiophile 24/96" and the mixer device as "PCM".

I've attached the scsconfig.log that the fedora soundcard detection tool 
creates in case that contains helpful information.
