Both rplay-rplayd and auplay/au produce _HORRIBLE_ noises instead of the expected sounds... xanim does play either -- makes 4-5 seconds pauses after 1 second of sound... Do I start them with wrong configuration flags? Which device(s) should I use /dev/dsp or /dev/audio (tried both)? Should I try changing drivers -- mss and opl also support the SoundBlaster?.. Thanks for suggestions!
