Squeezeplug help

Hi,

been trying to get squeezeplug running with the DAC+ but i don't seem to be getting anywhere.

this is what i get when i type in aplay:

ALSA lib confmisc.c:768:(parse_card) cannot find card 'ALSA'
ALSA lib conf.c:4241:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_card_driver returned error: No such device
ALSA lib confmisc.c:392:(snd_func_concat) error evaluating strings
ALSA lib conf.c:4241:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_concat returned error: No such device
ALSA lib confmisc.c:1251:(snd_func_refer) error evaluating name
ALSA lib conf.c:4241:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_refer returned error: No such device
ALSA lib conf.c:4720:(snd_config_expand) Evaluate error: No such device
ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM front:ALSA
aplay: main:682: audio open error: No such device

trying to access /etc/modules and get permission denied, and also tried modifying the asound.conf but cannot access or paste the code there.

very noob at raspberry pi but fast learner and its interesting, anyway someone can point me in the right direction

thanks
