Nicola and Abelenda have given you the correct solutions (direct library calls or a sound daemon). Here's an incorrect solution that has the sole benefit of being dead simple.
cat click.au > /dev/audio You'll want to convert the sound files to au format (Mu-law, 8kHz, mono) using: sox foo.wav -r 8000 -c 1 -U foo.au. Although a brain dead kludge, writing directly to /dev/audio can sometimes be useful. Just don't tell anyone I told you about it. ;-) --Ben 2009/7/5 Sten Kvamme <s...@kvamme.se>: > Buttons with some action sound (eg klick, boink or broken glass) should > have minimal latency between touching the button and the sound. > > I have tested mplayer, madplay and aplay and mplayer is the slowest, > aplay is the fastest with < 1sec latency.
