I've been trying to get bsd 2.0.5R to play audio sounds and to play my
audio cd without any success.  I ran'sh MAKEDEV snd' to create the various
devices, which worked fine but still no audio when I run audio programs. 
What else do I have to do or do differently?  I have a soundblaster 16 and
a panasonic cdrom.  I'll take any suggestions.
