I'm not really sure what are you trying to achieve as Squeak, as I understand it, is a programming language, so I don't see much connection there. But if it already supports OSS output somehow (well, everything does), you can use it directly over FreeBSD's native OSS (or alternately 4Front's OSS if you prefer that) without any PulseAudio interaction. But then again, I find your question somewhat confusing and I might not be getting it right, so could you please elaborate a bit on your goals? m. -- Michal Varga, Stonehenge (Gmail account)
