Well, I think we've found one crucial difference, anyway.  You have a
PAS16 and I have a GUSMAX.  Clearly, speak freely only works with one
of the above in the default configuration! :-(

root@time-> ls -l /dev/audio*
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel         6 Apr 16 05:23 /dev/audio -> audio0
crw-rw-rw-  1 root  wheel   30,   4 Apr 16 05:23 /dev/audio0
crw-rw-rw-  1 root  wheel   30,  20 Apr 16 05:23 /dev/audio1
crw-rw-rw-  1 root  wheel   30,  36 Apr 16 05:23 /dev/audio2
root@time-> cat < /dev/audio
bash: /dev/audio: Device not configured
root@time-> cat < /dev/audio1
ïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïïï...

Other interesting facts about the GUS max and /dev/audio*:

root@time-> cat ~/Audio/hithere.au >/dev/audio
<sound>
root@time-> cat ~/Audio/hithere.au >/dev/audio1
bash: /dev/audio1: Device not configured
root@time-> cat ~/Audio/hithere.au >/dev/audio2
<sound>
root@time-> cat < /dev/audio2
<stuff>

So, it looks like /dev/audio2 is the only bidirectional audio device
on the GUSMAX.  Should /dev/audio point to /dev/audio2 for the
`gusmax' entry in /dev/MAKEDEV then?

Any sound hackers care to comment?

P.S. I tried speak freely with this set up and while it at least no
longer dies, I still don't get any reasonable speech through sfmike -
only clicking on the other end.
