Hmm. I use freeamp/mpg123/xawtv/quake here regularly, and sound works
beautifully. I'm on Debian 2.2 with a bit o' unstable thrown in for
good measure, 2.4.0test10, with ALSA 0.59d (Which, IIRC, emulates OSS
quite well.) I'm using an SBLive! Value.

For kicks I shut down ALSA and loaded the vanilla emu10k1 driver, but
this didn't resolve the issue either.

I'm a bit confused by your suggestion that I use /dev/dsp instead of
/dev/audio. How do I do this? I thought that each device served a
different function.
