There's xine and gstreamer there and I'm using xine. I've tested 
gstreamer too, but it was not any better (a bit worse, as a matter of 
fact).
Before I installed openSuSE, I was running Fedora. In Fedora, at the 
Device Preferences tab, two devices were shown: pulse audio and the 
actual sound card (priority was set to pulse audio). Here in openSuSE, 
only the sound card is shown, although I have pulse audio installed too.
Is this right? Shouldn't pulse audio be available in this dialog?
The pulse audio daemon is running, but it seems it's not being used.

It's installed.

I tried mp3, wav, ogg, mpg, flv and wmv. The same files can be played 
with sound in smplayer, so it must not be a codec issue.

Anything else I should check?

Thanks for your help,

Marcelo
