No, actually I haven't. I updated to current to see if it fixed this
and when I try to "cat foo.au > /dev/audio" it makes this short popping
noise and then it just sits there. If I try and control-C out of it,
the process jamms up my xterm. I get a process with a state like:
aellwood 1978 0.0 0.3 72 48 p0- IE 4:19PM 0:00.04 cat foo.au
And nothing kills it. If I try and use /dev/audio again it says
"/dev/audio: Device busy."
Any ideas?
I have a Sound Blaster 16. It comes up as:
sb0 at isa0 port 0x220-0x237 irq 7 drq 1: dsp v4.13
The card works just fine in Windows and with Descent and Doom.
