I did a test with pcm file and the sound is playing very fast,

snd_pcm_open(&handleSound,"hw:0,0",SND_PCM_STREAM_PLAYBACK,0)

Use "default" as device name. Using "hw" will prevent any automatic sample format/rate conversions.

//snd_pcm_hw_params_set_rate(handleSound,hardwareParam,8000,0);

This shouldn't be commented out, and you should check the return values of all these functions.
