Still an improvement, we have at least moved from silence with no error 
messages to silence with exceptions thrown.  This is new stuff to me, but that 
looks suggestive of some generic problem with Java's sound, rather than 
something specific to oggs.  Does 0.9.5 work for you?  Especially the ogg 
sounds there like the opening music.  If only the oggs are failing I'd double 
check the classpath that FreeCol and is starting with and make sure it is 
seeing all four sound-related jars.
