Matthew,
I'm using the default, which is esd (esdplay) in gnome, although I get
the same problem running the wav files through xmms (which uses libwav.so
as input and libesdout.so as output--both are versions 1.2.5).
One of the annoying things is that my sound card actually worked better
when I was running Red Hat 6.0. <sigh>
thanks much,
--Anthony
