Voxware may be "crap", but newpcm doesn't work right for my GUS PnP.  (And
yep, I sent mail to the multimedia list, which got some response, and I
sent mail to Cameron, which got no response.)

Voxware used to work fine, way back when.  Luigi's pcm code worked fine as
well with my GUS PnP.  Maybe it's time for me to switch back to voxware
from newpcm.  I'm tired of getting static every once in a while when
playing sound files.

I don't see any reason to get rid of voxware before newpcm is fully
functional.
