In lists.freebsd.multimedia you write: >I'm having problems getting XEmacs to use the sound card on FreeBSD. [...] >I can play audio CDs thru the sound card. However XEmacs wil not play >any sounds. It emits an error message of: >audio: SNDCTL_DSP_SETFMT, Undefined error: 0 Hmm, do you hear anything if you do something like cat /usr/local/share/sounds/train.au >/dev/audio I'm certainly hearing sound here when I do (play-sound-file "something.au") on my xemacs-20.4. I've compiled it from source tho instead of using the package. You could try that as well. >This the the XEmacs package for 2.2.6. And the sounds that it is >trying to play are .au files from the distribution. I'm not sure >whether it is trying to use the /dev/speaker device, or any of the >others. I guess it should try to use /dev/audio. /dev/speaker isn't configured by default.
