Hi,
Unfortunately I have very limited free time at the moment[*] to look at 
any of these, and as Cameron is sadly no longer with us, I have no 
objection to reassigning them (all) to freebsd-multimedia.  If nothing 
else, they'll get a wider audience, since sound@ is a closed list 
consisting only of myself and two others.

Regards,
George
