******************** dmesg output after attempting to play *****

pcm0: unit not configured, perhaps you want pcm1 ?


so after a suggestion from luigi i linked the files /dev/dsp,/dev/audio
etc to /dev/dsp1,/dev/audio1 etc.....

but now when i attempt playing anything(mpg123 sound.mp3),i get about half
second of sound followed by silence.....it just hangs in.....

dmesg o/p reads:

tsleep returns 4

and after some more time,i get on dmesg:

timeout flushing dbuf_out, chan 1 cnt 0x6a84 flags 0x00004041



what could be the problem and how do i go about solving it???

thanks
