This combo worked fine. I backed out this change to allow the latest lot of sound changes to come through, and seem to have encountered a problem. Sound still plays, but with a regular click, and after a little while the sound process hangs. This is the NAS soundserver playing sounds in eight bit mode. It is a considerable improvement over v3.0.5 of VOXware, which just produced a high pitched whine, but still needs some work. In order to reproduce, compile NAS off the ports area and try it out. My version of NAS has been modified to use the DSP_SETFRAG stuff to lower the latency. I'll remove those hacks & report back.
