Hi,

I have a FreeBSD machine that's playing music via it's SoundBlaster PCI128.
I want to create some beep's with it, during the music, through the soundcard.

Opening /dev/midi0 or /dev/sequencer0 just gives "Device not configured".
And opening /dev/dsp0 and trying for example ioctl "SNDCTL_SYNTH_INFO", gives 
me "Invalid argument".

Is my PCI-soundcard just not equipped with a FM synthesizer, or am I missing 
something here?

What I am trying to do is playing short tones while some other program is 
playing sound. If there is any other way to do this, other than in-software 
mixing the two streams (music & tones) into one, I would like to know how :)
