But, when I use splay to play WAVE-files it sounds better, but still not good.. Playing a long WAVE-file, it sounds bad in the start, but after a few seconds, it plays perfect. In the start it sounds like there is something left from the previous sound I have played.. Strange, IMHO. > > > What could cause this error?

Hmm.. it´s not included in the standard ports collection that came with the 2.2.1-RELEASE distribution. I guess I'll have to fetch it from some FreeBSD ftp-site...(?)
