Dud'n work:

ghe@sbox:... mpv 
KIMIKO_ISHIZAKA-GoldbergVariations-BWV-988-01-Aria__44k-24b.mp3 
--ao=alsa:device='[plughw:0,0]'
No command 'mpv' found, did you mean:
  Command 'mpd' from package 'mpd' (main)
  Command 'mpb' from package 'mpb' (main)
  Command 'mpc' from package 'mpc' (main)
  Command 'mmv' from package 'mmv' (main)
  Command 'mpmv' from package 'mpdtoys' (main)
  Command 'mev' from package 'gpm' (main)
  Command 'pv' from package 'pv' (main)
  Command 'mcv' from package 'scotch' (main)
  Command 'mv' from package 'coreutils' (main)
  Command 'mp' from package 'mp' (main)
mpv: command not found

I tried it as root and got just the

mpv: command not found

I did an 'apt-search mpv' and got hundreds of ...mpv and ...mpv... etc, 
but no just plain mpv.

Do:

    apt-get install mpv

The point here is that "aplay -l" finds different devices and we try to
put some sounds directly to those devices. There are higher-level tools
for configuring audio but low-level tests are pretty good starting
point and good for understanding basics.

Executable files are usually in /usr/bin, so:

    $ apt-file search /usr/bin/mpv
    mpv: /usr/bin/mpv

Meaning that package mpv has the file /usr/bin/mpv.

Tried that (in Aptitude and apt-file). Maybe it just isn't in my repos, somehow.

aplay -l did what you said it would. And it removed a couple variables from the problem.

Yes. I'm a great believer in that -- several people have gone crazy when I say, "Bring up a terminal" :-)

But in this case, the high-level tools (and some random clicking) eventually found the answer.

Weird. Mpv is in Jessie repos, at least. But Mplayer and Mplayer2 have
similar syntax:

    mplayer music.mp3 -ao alsa:device=plughw=0.0   # card 0, device 0
