Thanks for the tip, however it doesn't quite work:

(16:24:25 <~>) 0 $ vsound -f appel.wav
/usr/local/lib/RealPlayer8/realplay /home/pub/25/Audio/appel\[1\].rm 
Missing file ./vsound61809.au.
This means that the libvsound wrapper did not work correctlty. A 
possible reason is that the program you are trying to run is 
setuid. In this case you will need to run vsound as root.
(16:24:51 <~>) 0 $ sudo vsound -f appel.wav
/usr/local/lib/RealPlayer8/realplay /home/pub/25/Audio/appel\[1\].rm 
Missing file ./vsound62032.au.
This means that the libvsound wrapper did not work correctlty. A 
possible reason is that the program you are trying to run is 
setuid. In this case you will need to run vsound as root.
(16:27:22 <~>) 0 $ ls -l /usr/local/lib/RealPlayer8/realplay
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  1247004 Nov  5 17:16
/usr/local/lib/RealPlayer8/realplay

What am I doing wrong?
