If it's using /dev/audio it's an old OSS program, so presumably you are using some wrapper like aoss or padsp to use it? Maybe something changed or broke there? This might be a case where reading the source for the program will give you more clues. -- Cheers, Sven Arvidsson http://www.whiz.se PGP Key ID 6FAB5CD5
