	I just FTP'ed the RealAudio software for FreeBSD 2.1 from
www.realaudio.com. I followed the installation instructions but whenever I
try to play a realaudio file it comes out souding worse that a cat fight.
For the record, I can play .mod files with tracker and standard audio CD
thru my sound card without problems. Here is a device list from dmesg. 
Maybe someone can help me or tell me what I need to do to get RealAudio to
work? TIA
