Music player daemon + ALSA

I'm trying to set up MPD to play music. I'm able co view and set server settings with mpd clients like mpc and gmpc, however it doesn't react to the play command. My mpd.conf:

 

5 music_directory                 "~/music"
  6 playlist_directory              "~/playlists"
  7 db_file                         "~/mpd.db"
  8 log_file                        "~/mpd.log"
  9 error_file                      "~/mpd.error"
27 pid_file                        "/var/run/mpd/mpd.pid"
34 state_file                      "/var/lib/mpd/mpdstate"
 46 user                            "flav"
 50 bind_to_address                 "127.0.0.1"
 51 #bind_to_address                 "any"
 52 port                            "6600"
 68 password                        "pass@read,add,control,admin"
 75 default_permissions             "read,add,control,admin"
 92 audio_output {
 93         type                    "alsa"
 94         name                    "My ALSA Device"
 97 }
142 mixer_type                      "alsa"
143 mixer_device                    "default"
144 mixer_control                   "PCM"

As I said, I'm able to communicate with the server, I can connect. I'm also able to play music with other players (ie, vlc)
