Thanks for testing. Why handroll things if a base tool does the whole dance correctly, incl. ownership and permissions? Not intended, but nice to have: aucat(1) also fails whether sndiod(8) runs and/or the cookie actually works, i.e. 'rcctl start spotifyd' would fail if sound isn't set up properly, which 'mkdir && dd' does not.
