same problem here with SB Live and 4.7-Stable and -Current (some days
old). this not only troubles the QT Player, but linux-quake2(from
id)/quake2/quakeforge are affected too.

if you change the mmap() line to this:

p = mmap(NULL, info.fragstotal * info.fragsize, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE,
MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);

the mmap() call will work, but you get an access denied, changeing the
way fd is opened will make your code (and quake) work on -stable:

fd = open("/dev/dsp", O_RDWR);

the problem is, i need the mmap() call to work for the original quake2
compiled for linux from id Software themselves. so if anyone could look
into this issue i would be very glad.

it looks like pcm needs Read/Write access to the buffer on -stable
(though writing should be all that is needed)

And thank you Maxim for narrowing this down to such a simple code
fragement.
