Unfortunately, even though I can get all the right libraries to
load, I cannot get sound to work reliably on amd64. Neither aoss
nor vmdsp seem to work for me, either as a user or root.
That's very strange, because...

Actually, no. You have to use the library name, so libaoss.so is
valid, /emul/.../libaoss.so is

Hmm, looks like building this is broken on AMD64 arches...too bad.
I'll check the patch submitted by Bo.

Ah, libvmdsp.so is a 64-bit library. I am pretty sure that vmware

Try changing the vmwarearts script to preload the library from
/usr/lib32 instead of /usr/lib.

The workaround to this is to use a wrapper such as aoss or

/dev/dsp and uses another audio API instead (alsa for aoss, esd or
