Unfortunately with my upgrade to Ubuntu Hardy this has stopped working; I can
put off the effect by playing a test tone in linux, but Qemu again takes over
the sound system completely the first time it succeeds in making noise.  Maybe
this has something to do with the addition of *yet another* audio layer in Hardy
(PulseAudio?)
