as suggested i disabled esd and commented out the ac3 tag in oglerc and 
now all works well...
with the ac3 tag on the sound is audible but with a lot of noise....
this is not the most elegant way, but shutting down esd seems to be the 
only way...

commenting out the ac3 tage make also disappears the string:

ERROR[ogle_audio]: Unable to update the IEC958 control: No such file or directory


just in case this can help you debugging this little problem ;-)
Many thanks Bj|rn
