Since killing off all of KDE's funny sound daemons, Quake III now responds
with

------- sound initialization -------
/dev/dsp: Device or resource busy
Could not open /dev/dsp

open the FreeBSD native audio device..? I know for a fact that /dev/dsp is
not busy, because I can open XMMS and play audio just fine.
