When I tried to play a 24 bit OGG (flac) file, I had several errors, one per program I was trying to play it with. They were like: "Can't open dsp", "Error initializing sound", etc. But every other audio, either 16 bit or 8 bit, is playing fine. DVD-audio, along with HDTV, has a growing popularity. >How-To-Repeat: In a system that has 24 bit audio I/O support, try to play a DVD-audio. >Fix: I'm not sure if even opensound.com has 24 bit capability. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
