At work I was given a Compaq 1.5GHz box, upon which I installed
FreeBSD-4.4 with no problems.  I can play CDs through its sound card
no problem.

But when I play local or remote mp3  and remote streems (e.g. the Ogg
Vorbis stream from BBC) it plays about 16% too fast.  Sounds like
chipmonks on speed.  

Since all three of these programs are playing fast, I'm guessing that
the players may be guessing the CPU speed in order to determine the
proper play-out rate for the digital stream, but it's just a guess.  

Any thoughts why this would play so fast? How to fix?

Thanks.
