Using aplay I can play the provided sample file "sin1000_48khz.wav"
"aplay -Dhw:0,0 sin1000_48khz.wav"
and also other .wav files as long as they are all stereo and 48000bps.
I cannot play .wav files in mono or at other speeds, I have tried various combinations of commands, e.g.
"aplay -f S16_LE -c2 -r48000 test.wav"
But I always seem to get the "unable to install hw params" message.
What am I doing wrong?

HiFiBerry team aplay is extremely limited. It works only if the card accept the exact format of the file. As our DAC is stereo, it does not provide mono.
Try to use mplayer, it will automatically use the right format (e.g. putting the mono track on left and right).
