Is there a reason not to use something like libao here?
http://www.xiph.org/ao/
It lists NetBSD amongst the systems it supports. I suspect this will
only solve part of the problem, since it appears to only do PCM audio
output, but this has got to be a problem that has been solved before.
How complicated is the audio code? Would it be difficult for me to add a
libao driver?
