I've got to rewrite the source due to hard disk problems, so I'll just put
it in this email:

/* dsp_seg.c */
/* If there are any compile errors, forgive me; I'm not on a FreeBSD box */
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <unistd.h>

#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/soundcard.h>
#include <fcntl.h>

#define FORMAT AFMT_S16_LE
#define RATE 8000
#define CHANNELS 1

char *buf;
int fd;
int buflen;

void this_segfaults(void);

int main(void)
{
    fd = open("/dev/dsp", O_RDWR);
    if (fd < 0)
    {
        perror("open");
        exit(1);
    }

    this_segfaults();

    printf("m00\n");
    exit(0);
}

void this_segfaults(void)
{
    int arg;

    arg = FORMAT;
    if (ioctl(fd, SNDCTL_DSP_SETFMT, &arg) < 0)
    {
        perror("ioctl setfmt");
        exit(1);
    }

    if (ioctl(fd, SNDCTL_DSP_GETOSPACE, &arg) < 0)
    {
        perror("ioctl getospace");
        exit(1);
    }

    printf("arg: %d\n", arg);

    buf = malloc(arg);
    if (!buf)
    {
        perror("malloc");
        exit(1);
    }

    arg = CHANNELS;
    if (ioctl(fd, SNDCTL_DSP_CHANNELS, &arg) < 0)
    {
        perror("ioctl channels");
        exit(1);
    }

    arg = RATE;
    if (ioctl(fd, SNDCTL_DSP_SETRATE, &arg) < 0)
    {
        perror("ioctl setrate");
        exit(1);
    }
}
/* End of source */
