I've looked into more details for audio and it uses the alsa
interface exported by pulseaudio[1][2]:

I'm not sure if "pulse" is the host name for the interface or not
though[3][4].

So here using plain GNU/Linux and "mplayer -ao alsa <file>" could
probably work for testing.

I'll try to look into some other interfaces later on.

[4]They use a modified version of the real alsa library[5], so the
   API documentation should be the same.
