Folks, I'm using Foobar2K 0.9 to play my music. Along with my laptop, connected a Philips Aurilium USB sound card from which I take input for my headphone.

i.e. Laptop + Foobar -->USB Sound Card --->Headphone

If I select ASIO output in Foobar, then the sound comes only from my laptop's headphone jack. I'm expecting the ASIO output sound to go through USB sound card, get processed and reach my headphone through USB sound card's headphone out. But it's not happening. Anyone knows why?

In foobar, check Preferences > Playback > Output > Output Device:

It should indicate something like "ASIO: Philips Aurilium"

If your Philips USB Device doesn't show up there, you might have to add it under ASIO Virtual Devices. Make sure to select the respective right and left channels in Channel Map.

Install the plugin for ASIO to work in foobar? There should be a submenu where it allows you to set the output of the device you want to use. Then you have to set the output to ASIO whatever. Don't recall it specifically, at school right now. But it definitely works.

what if you hear signal sound on both left and right side no matter what mapping you choose?

I mean, for left mapping, you should hear sound only on left side, and vice versa for right mapping, right?

I don't see Philips Aurilium mapped to ASIO. It shows SigmaTel (my laptop's default driver) but not ASIO. Should Aurilium processor also support ASIO?

According to this ExtremeTech article, the Philips Aurilium does not support ASIO.

But, you could try the USB ASIO driver from www.usb-audio.com. The Aurilium is listed as supported, but only 48 kHz.

I believe whatever is mapped to the sound device's left channel is only heard in the left, and the same for the right channel. There's a "Play test signal" command in the popup menu.
