I am trying to make my own Error beep handler for linux (rev 2.9 rc1), because i don't like the internal beep. First Rev wouldn't make any sounds at all (besides the internal speaker when using "beep"), so I reinstalled the ESD package, and added the sound mixer client. Now Rev makes static sound, similar to radio, in the length of the chosen wav sound file (the same files that work properly in the system sound pane).

I'm not sure if I have missed something obvious, due to not understanding how linux sounds are supposed to work, or if this is a bug.

Can anyone help me single in on one or the other?

Rev only supports uncompressed sounds. If you try to play a compressed sound file, you get the static noise you describe. You should be able to play uncompressed .au, .aif, and .wav files.
