I've added those options to the line in /etc/rc.d/init.d/apmd that
starts apmd - RedHat 5.2 running apmd v2.4 on the system in

Many thanks, inserted and working...

As it happens, that notebook doesn't have sound facilities, so that's
not something I need to worry about, but thanks for the suggestions.
