Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-control-
Error report states:
audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink profile=music:
Could not open audio device for playback.
If the device cannot be used then it should not be listed as an option for testing. If it cannot be opened due to some other reason then a simple explanation or troubleshooting method should be provided. If it is a fatal error with the device then a detailed report should be provided, but hidden from normal view so that the average Joe doesn't get scared.
The thing about it is I've selected this device for use even though I can't test it, but it still seems to work because sound works fine in every program except Totem (which I've reported as a different bug, possibly related, maybe not).

the software can't know what options are working on not without trying those and you probably don't want random sound played when started the configuration tool only for that
