Hello all,

I installed the Network Audio System version 1.2 patchlevel 1 in my laptop
with soundblaster pro. When I start the server with

 	au -aa &
it seems to work fine but 
	auplay test.wav
says it cannot connect to server. I got it to work with
	au :tcp:127.0.0.1:8000 -aa &
and
	auplay -audio tcp/127.0.0.1:8000 test.wav
It plays the wave and then hangs up. ^C exits it, but I am unable to play
any other sound unless I kill au and restart again. The computer is off-line,
I mean, it is not networked (I use it for developing at home). ANother
laptop (of a friend) have the same problem.

If helps, I just want Netscape to play some sounds.

thanks in advance for any suggestion,

Rafael.
