I know I'm not adding to the solution, but whenever *I* play 8bit .au's i get pauses all the time, as if the kernel was buffering and waiting for the card. This happens with realaudio, rplay, cat>/dev/audio, au etc... i remember seeing a thread about it on usenet but I lost it and now my newsservers is committing grand suckage. I tried searching the database and the FAQ, but came out with nothing. Oi! (And I'm running 2.2 so don't tell me to upgrade <grrr>) ada ps, the card is a soundblaster 16(?) PnP multimedia schtick. nothing unusual, i think
