I've been trying for a while now to get my the audio programs 
setup and working under FreeBSD.

I have recompiled the kernel with the recommended options to 
enable the soundblaster, and this seems to be ok (audio device
exists).  The xcd and cdplayer programs work ok, and I get sound 
out of the speakers from these.

However, I haven't been able to get the other audio programs in 
the ports collection (esp. rplay and nas) to work.  Can anyone tell
me anything about getting these to work?  Perhaps I need to include 
rplayd in my inetd.conf, or something....  I don't really know 
what I'm talking about now so I'll stop.

Any help gratefully accepted,

Marcus.
