 a recent commit changed the assumptions made by the upper layer code,
 breaking devices not using auto-init dma.  last night i committed a fix to
 make the ess cards use autoinit, so they should work now.

Great. Thanks Cameron.

 You're lucky, you got to the realplayer.:-)  My ESS1869 hangs on a
 simple cat gong.au/dev/audio.  Do you have sound with everything except
 realplayer?

Nope.  Just tried cat hello.au  /dev/dsp.  Nothing.  It hangs at
the command line.  Same with cat *.au  /dev/audio.  Hangs.  Same
behavior with RealPlayer in fact;  RealPlayer just hangs when I
press "play", and I get no sound.

Donn,

Thanks for the feedback.   Misery loves company, they say.:-)  We seem to
have the same problem.

Does anyone with a ESS 186[89] have their sound working with a recent world
and
device  pcm0
device  sbc0

Thanks,

ed
