[misterhouse-users] Festival on FreeBSD

[Chad A. <cha...@my...>]

I recently set "hw.snd.pcm0.vchans=3D4" (virtual channels for sound) on =
a
FreeBSD 5.3 box and now when I try to get festival to speak I just get
silence.  I can play sound files with sox and if I copy a file to
/dev/dsp I get noise as I would expect.  Festival worked before I turned
on virtual channels but now I get nothing.  I have set festival's
Audio_Method to freebsd16audio and that does not work.  When I set it to
netaudio I get what sounds like "slow motion" speaking.  Has anyone
seen/solved this before?  I have also posted this to the
FreeBSD-Questions list in desperation :-)
