libao's ALSA device selection is pretty much correct - it uses "default"
PCM if no device is specified, and other devices can be selected like
so:
ogg123 -d alsa09 -o dev:"hw:0,0" file.ogg
Unfortunately the ALSA device selection syntax isn't documented in the
manpage so I had to figure this out by code inspection and trial &
error...
