Note that OSSv4 has much better audio driver support than the old
SunAudio interfaces.  I would recommend downloading OSSv4 rc3
packages here:

   http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/opensound/files/

You should also install the GStreamer replacements for the
architecture you are using.

These packages should work better than the ones available from
the 4front website since they are tailored to work well on
Solaris and well tested.

Note that OSSv4 is integrated in build 115, so you can also wait
until build 115 is available to get this improved driver support.
